Where we host workshops in Medellín

Our graffiti workshops in Medellín can be organised in various locations, depending on the group's size and specific needs. Popular areas for such creative activities include parts of El Poblado, particularly around Provenza, where there is a lively atmosphere and accessible spaces. Laureles, with its more traditional feel and open plazas, can also be suitable for certain setups. For larger groups or those seeking more controlled environments, venues in areas like Envigado or Sabaneta, nearby municipalities well-connected to Medellín, offer alternative options. We prioritise locations that are safe, accessible, and provide an appropriate setting for creative expression.

We generally look for spaces that are easily reachable and offer a good balance of privacy for the creative process and proximity to amenities.

Schritt für Schritt

  2. Safety first: Get geared up with your protective suit, gloves, and high-quality respiratory mask to keep things clean and safe.
  3. The basics: Learn about different spray nozzles (caps) and how they change the thickness and texture of your lines.
  4. Technique practice: Head to the practice wall to master your 'can control'—practising lines, dots, and basic filling techniques.
  5. Sketching your vision: Work with the artist to sketch out your initial design, focusing on lettering, characters, or abstract shapes.
  6. Outline and fill: Start the real magic! Apply your base layers and fill in your design with Medellin's most vibrant colours.
  7. Defining the details: Use contrasting colours to add highlights, shadows, and that sharp outline that makes graffiti pop.
  8. The final tag: Sign your masterpiece with your unique street name—the final touch on every authentic piece of street art.
  9. Photo op: Strike a pose with your finished work for the ultimate Medellin memory before packing up!

Travelling to your Medellín workshop

Medellín is well-served by public transport. The Medellín Metro, Colombia's only metro system, provides an efficient way to travel across the city. Many workshop locations are within a reasonable walk or short taxi ride from metro stations like Poblado, Estadio, or Floresta, depending on the specific venue. For those arriving from further afield, José María Córdova International Airport (MDE) serves Medellín and is located in Rionegro, accessible via dedicated shuttle buses, taxis, or ride-sharing services that connect directly to the city.

For groups travelling by car, main roads such as Avenida Las Vegas or Avenida El Poblado offer primary access routes through the city. While central parking can be a challenge, many commercial areas have paid parking facilities. Coach access might require specific drop-off and pick-up arrangements, particularly in busier districts. We will provide detailed travel instructions relevant to your chosen workshop location.

Lokale Kultur

Medellín's street art character

Medellín has a compelling relationship with street art and murals, particularly visible in districts that have undergone significant social and urban renewal. Comuna 13, for example, has become internationally recognised for its vibrant street art, which tells powerful stories of transformation and resilience. While our workshops do not necessarily take place in Comuna 13 itself, the spirit of community expression and artistic storytelling found there is a strong influence on Medellín's broader creative landscape.

The city's public art is not limited to specific neighbourhoods; you can find murals and artistic interventions in various places, from underpasses to public plazas. This prevalence of accessible art makes Medellín an inspiring place to engage with graffiti and street art, offering participants a direct connection to the city's contemporary cultural pulse and its ongoing artistic dialogue.
