What is the difference between graffiti and vandalism?

Our anti-vandalism program teaches the difference between mindless tagging and intentional street art. While tagging is often done without permission on private property, street art is a respected form of expression that requires skill and legal space. We focus on the artistic techniques and the importance of respecting public environments while providing a creative outlet for participants to express themselves safely.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for beginners?

Absolutely. Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups and ensure everyone uses the spray cans correctly. We also choose well-ventilated outdoor spots in Merida to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for every participant throughout the session.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable shoes that you do not mind getting a bit of paint on. Although we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business! It is better to be safe than sorry, so leave your designer gear at home and come ready to get colourful in the Merida sunshine.

Can we book this for a large group in Merida?

We can accommodate various group sizes, from small private parties of 10 people to large scale community events with over 100 participants. The structure of the workshop is adapted based on your numbers to ensure everyone gets enough hands-on time with the spray cans and personal guidance from our artists. Just let us know your group size when booking!

How long does a typical session last?

A standard anti-vandalism workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the theory of legal art, learn basic spray techniques, and complete a final collaborative masterpiece. We can also provide shorter taster sessions or full-day intensive programs depending on your specific goals and requirements for the day.

Do I need to be good at drawing to participate?

No artistic talent is required at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone, regardless of their drawing skills. Our professional artists will guide you through simple techniques like outlines, fills, and highlights. You will be amazed at what you can create by the end of the session. It is all about having fun and learning something new.

Where do the workshops take place?

Our Merida workshops are fully mobile. We can come to your school, community centre, or corporate office if you have a suitable outdoor space. Alternatively, we can arrange a session at one of our local partner locations. We always ensure the site is appropriate for spray painting and meets all necessary safety standards before we start.

Local culture

Merida, known as the "White City", is famous for its stunning colonial architecture and limestone buildings. However, there is a growing and vibrant street art scene that adds a modern pulse to its traditional heart. From the colourful murals in the San Sebastian neighbourhood to the hidden gems in the outskirts, Merida is the perfect backdrop for exploring urban art. Our workshops respect the city's heritage by focusing on legal designated spaces. Fun Fact: Did you know that the "White City" name might actually come from the traditional dress of the locals (the huipil) rather than just the buildings? We love adding our own splash of colour to that famous white canvas! ✨

Pricing

We believe every project in Merida is unique. Whether you are a small group of friends or a large community organisation, we tailor the experience to fit your needs. Prices depend on group size and setup, so the best way to get an accurate figure is to get in touch. We do not require upfront payments, so you can pay after the workshop is complete. 🎤 Request a quote today and let's start planning your creative journey!
