Is the graffiti workshop in Barranquilla safe for everyone?

Every participant is equipped with high-quality protective gear, including overalls, gloves, and specialised masks. We prioritise your safety and ensure that the workshop is conducted in a controlled, ventilated environment. Our artists are trained professionals who guide you through every step, making sure you can focus entirely on your creativity without worrying about a single stain on your clothes.

Do I need any prior artistic experience to join?

Absolutely! Our onboarding workshops are specifically designed for people who have never held a spray can before. We start with the very basics, such as how to control the pressure of the nozzle and how to stand correctly. Our friendly instructors will be right by your side, providing tips and encouragement to help you create something you are proud of.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

A standard onboarding session usually lasts between 2 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the introductory theory, practice basic techniques on our 'test walls', and then move on to the main event: your own large-scale graffiti piece. It is the perfect duration to stay energised and engaged without feeling rushed or overly tired.

What materials are included in the workshop price?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes a wide array of premium spray paint in every colour of the rainbow, nozzles (caps) for different stroke widths, protective clothing, and the canvas or wall space. You only need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!

Where in Barranquilla do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible with locations across Barranquilla! We have access to various legal graffiti zones and creative hubs throughout the city. If you have a specific private venue or an office space in mind, we can often bring the workshop to you, provided there is enough ventilation and space to work safely. We’ll discuss the best spot for you.

Do I have to pay in advance for the booking?

No, there is no upfront payment required when you book with Graffitifun. We believe in the quality of our service and want you to feel completely confident. You simply pay after the workshop is completed and you are happy with the experience. This takes the stress out of planning and ensures everything goes exactly as you hoped.

What happens if the weather doesn't cooperate?

Barranquilla’s climate is generally great for outdoor art, but if it rains, we have backup plans. We often use covered outdoor areas or indoor spaces with high-level ventilation. Additionally, we have a network of backup artists to ensure your event always goes ahead as scheduled, so you never have to worry about last-minute cancellations.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next outing in Barranquilla? It’s more than just painting; it’s a powerful way to break down barriers and spark innovation. Here’s why we think you’ll love it:

Zero pressure environment: There are no mistakes in graffiti, only "unplanned effects." It’s a great way to de-stress and have a laugh.
Boosts team morale: Working together on a giant mural fosters collaboration and communication like no other activity.
The Carnival spirit: We channel the local "Joie de vivre" of Barranquilla into every can of spray paint.
Unique memories: You won't just leave with a photo; you'll leave with a sense of pride and a new set of skills.
No risk booking: With no upfront payment and guaranteed artist backup, your event is in safe hands.
Accessible to all: Whether you're 8 or 80, our workshops are adapted to suit all ages and physical abilities.

Step by step

Introduction and safety briefing: Your session starts with a warm welcome from our pros and a quick rundown on how to use the equipment safely and effectively.
The history of street art: Get a crash course in the origins of graffiti and how it evolved into the global phenomenon we see on the streets today.
Nozzle and pressure control: Learn the 'finger-feel' required to create thin lines, thick fades, and sharp edges by practicing on our warmup boards.
Sketching your concept: Grab some paper and pencils to map out your ideas before you commit them to the wall. Our artists will help refine your design.
Foundation layers: Start by 'filling in' the large blocks of colour for your piece, getting used to the motion of the spray can.
Defining the outlines: This is where your artwork pops! We’ll teach you how to apply crisp outlines to make your design stand out.
Adding highlights and shadows: Learn the pro tricks for 3D effects, adding light points and depth to give your work a professional finish.
The final reveal: Step back with the group and admire the collective masterpiece you've created in the heart of Barranquilla.
Photography and cleanup: We capture high-quality photos of your finished work so you can show it off later, then we pack up all the gear for you.

Our workshops tap into this local spirit, drawing inspiration from the bright palettes and tropical themes that define the city. When you join us, you aren't just learning a technique; you're participating in a living tradition of Colombian expression. Whether we're working near the historic centre or in a modern creative lounge, the vibe of Barranquilla will surely fuel your creativity.
