What is the minimum age for the after-school graffiti workshop?

While we recommend our workshops for children aged 8 and up due to the physical coordination required to press the spray nozzles, we can host younger kids with parental assistance. For after-school programs in Cali, we focus on safety and ergonomics, ensuring every child feels confident. We provide smaller gloves and lighter cans where possible, making sure the experience is inclusive and enjoyable for all students regardless of their prior art experience.

Is spraying graffiti paint safe for school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep those school uniforms clean. Our professional artists are trained in workshop safety management and supervise every spray. We use low-odour, high-quality paints designed for artistic use. Before we even touch a can, we conduct a safety briefing to ensure everyone understands how to handle the equipment responsibly.

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

We love Cali's sunshine, but we always have a Plan B! If the weather turns, we can move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space with adequate ventilation. Our team is flexible and used to the local climate. If you've booked an outdoor session and it looks like a tropical downpour is coming, we'll coordinate with you to ensure the creative fun continues under a roof.

Do the students need to have previous drawing or painting skills?

None at all! That's the beauty of graffiti. Many students who don't consider themselves 'traditional' artists find their voice through street art. Our Cali-based instructors are experts at breaking down complex murals into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and 'tags' before moving on to 3D effects and highlights. We guarantee that every student will walk away having created something they are genuinely proud of.

How long does a typical after-school graffiti session last?

A standard after-school session usually runs for about 2 hours, but we can flex between 1.5 to 3 hours to fit your school's specific schedule. This timing allows for a proper introduction, safety demo, practice session, and the creation of a final masterpiece. We find this duration keeps energy levels high and allows students enough time to see their progress without feeling rushed or becoming fatigued.

Are all materials included in the workshop price?

We bring everything! The price includes professional-grade spray paint in a vibrant rainbow of colours, protective gear (masks, suits, gloves), and the 'canvas' (which could be a shared wall, individual boards, or large plastic sheets). You just need to provide the space and enthusiastic students. Our goal is to make the process as stress-free as possible for school administrators and parents—we handle the setup and the cleanup!

Do the students get to keep their artwork?

We offer total flexibility. We can work on large cellophane 'walls' stretched between poles, individual canvases that the children can take home, or even a permanent mural on a designated school wall! Many Cali schools choose individual boards so students have a tangible souvenir of their creative journey. If you are interested in a permanent mural, just let us know so we can prepare the right types of weather-resistant paint.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school program? It's more than just paint on a wall—it's a gateway to self-discovery! 🌟

Boosts creative confidence: Graffiti has no "wrong" answers, allowing kids who struggle with perfectionism to let loose and experiment. 🚀
Physical & coordination skills: Handling a spray can requires fine motor skills and spatial awareness that you just don't get with a paintbrush. 💪
Cultural connection: We connect students to the rich urban history of Cali, making art feel relevant and alive. 🎧
Teamwork & collaboration: Many sessions involve creating a "crew" mural, teaching students how to work together toward a massive visual goal. 🤝
Professional mentorship: Our artists aren't just teachers; they are active members of the street art community who inspire kids with their passion. 🏆
Total fun factor: Let's be honest—nothing beats the excitement of hearing that first "hiss" of a spray can! 🔥

Step by step

The arrival & setup: Our professional graffiti artists arrive at your Cali location early to set up the 'splash zone' with protective floor coverings and prep the canvases.
The history of spray: We kick off with a high-energy intro about the roots of street art and how it became a global cultural phenomenon.
Safety first: Every student gets kitted out in protective gear while we demonstrate the 'golden rules' of using spray cans safely and respectfully.
Mastering the nozzle: Students start with 'can control' exercises, learning how to create dots, thin lines, and thick flares on practice sheets.
Sketching the vision: Using markers or chalk, participants map out their design ideas, focusing on letter structure and flow.
The filling phase: This is where the colour comes in! We teach students how to blend shades and create smooth gradients.
Outlining & highlights: We show them how to add 'power lines' and 'shines' to make their graffiti pop off the surface.
The gallery walk: We finish with a celebratory walk-through where everyone shares their work and gets props from the group.
Clean-up & pack-away: We take care of all the mess, leaving the school grounds exactly as we found them (except for the amazing new art!).

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours (we work around your school bell!).
Group sizes: We cater to small groups of 10 or large assemblies of up to 100 with multiple artists.
Everything included: Spray cans, masks, gloves, overalls, and canvases are all provided.
Safety: We use high-grade protective equipment and water-based paints where appropriate for younger kids.

Local culture

Cali isn't just the world's Salsa capital; it's a city pulsating with visual rhythm! From the politically charged murals in the Siloé district to the modern street art galleries in San Antonio and El Peñón, Cali has a rich tradition of using public walls as a voice for the people. Our workshops draw inspiration from this local flair, teaching students that art is a powerful way to communicate with their community. 🎨

Fun Cali Fact: Did you know that Cali is home to the "Museo Libre de Arte Público de Colombia"? It's one of the largest open-air art galleries in Latin America, featuring incredible murals that stretch for kilometres! We aim to inspire the next generation to add their own stories to this colourful legacy. 🇨🇴
