What should I wear to the graffiti cultural event in Cusco?

While we handle all the technical spray-painting gear, we highly recommend you wear old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of 'character' on. We provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, but spray paint is notorious for finding its way onto sleeves! Think comfortable, casual, and ready for action—leave the fancy Cusco alpaca wool jumpers for your evening dinner.

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely not! Our workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through every stage, from holding the can correctly to mastering complex shading techniques. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive, and they all leave with a piece of art they're genuinely proud of.

Is the spray paint safe to use for everyone?

The safety of our participants is our number one priority. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary safety equipment, including FFP2 masks and gloves. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a full safety briefing before any paint is sprayed. We ensure the workshop space is well-ventilated so you can focus entirely on your creative process without any worries.

How long does the workshop session actually last?

A standard cultural graffiti experience in Cusco typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the local street art scene, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the creation of your final masterpiece. We move at a pace that keeps the energy high while ensuring everyone feels supported and unhurried.

What is the maximum group size for a cultural event?

We can accommodate a wide range of groups! Whether you are a solo traveller looking to join a public session, a small family, or a large corporate group of 50+, we have the staff and materials to make it happen. For very large groups, we often bring in additional backup artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of one-on-one attention and guidance.

What happens if it rains on the day of my workshop?

Cusco weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. Whenever possible, we use covered or indoor locations that still offer the authentic 'street' feel. If we are scheduled for an outdoor spot and the Andean rain rolls in, we have backup indoor venues ready to go. We never cancel due to weather—the creativity must go on!

Can I take my graffiti artwork home with me?

Yes, you can! Depending on the specific format of your workshop, you can either take home the canvas you've worked on or take plenty of high-quality photos of your mural work. Many of our cultural events in Cusco focus on creating a personal piece of art that serves as a unique, self-made souvenir of your time in the Peruvian highlands.

Local culture

Cusco's street art is a fascinating dialogue between the past and the present. Walking through districts like San Blas, you'll squint and see murals that blend Incan mythology—think jaguars, condors, and serpents—with sharp, modern graphic styles. It’s a city where 'Chicha' art (a vibrant, neon-coloured aesthetic born from Andean tropical music) meets traditional graffiti lettering.

The local artists here often use walls to tell stories of social justice and cultural pride. This isn't just paint on a wall; it's a living, breathing part of the city's identity. 🏔️

Fun fact: Many local graffiti artists in Cusco incorporate the 'Chakana' (the Inca Cross) into their tags as a way to honour their heritage while making their mark in the urban landscape!

Pricing

We believe every creative event should be as unique as the art itself. Because our sessions vary based on group size, location, and specific requirements, we don't have a 'one size fits all' price tag.

Prices depend on group size and setup—request a quote today!

The best part? At Graffitifun, we don't require any upfront payment. You can book with confidence and only pay after the workshop is complete and your masterpiece is finished. 🔥
