Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls, to keep you clean and protected from fumes.

Our artists provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can to ensure a fun, hazard-free experience.

Everything is included! We provide the spray paint, caps, safety gear (masks, gloves, overalls), and the canvas or wall space. We even bring the inspiration and expert guidance.

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor workshop?

Bucaramanga weather is usually great, but if rain is forecast, we have options. We often work at covered outdoor locations that keep us dry while maintaining ventilation. If the weather is too extreme, we can reschedule the session at no extra cost or move to an indoor studio space using water-based, low-odour paints that are safe for indoor use.

Do I need to pay in advance for the workshop?

We believe in the quality of our service, which is why we don't require upfront payments for most bookings. You can pay after the workshop is completed and you're happy with the results. This gives you peace of mind and ensures we are 100% committed to delivering an amazing street art experience for your group.
