Do I need to be an artist to join a graffiti retreat?

You don't need a single ounce of artistic experience to join our Cusco retreat! Our professional artists specialize in teaching absolute beginners. We start with the basics of nozzle control and lines before moving on to complex filling techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, regardless of your previous background in art. It's all about the experience and expression!

Is the spray paint safe to use during the workshop?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including professional-grade FFP3 masks to filter out fumes, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces in Cusco to ensure maximum airflow and a comfortable environment for everyone while they unleash their creativity.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard creative retreat workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a safety briefing, technique practice, and the final creation of your large-scale mural or individual canvas. If you are looking for a more intensive multi-day retreat experience, we can certainly customise a schedule that spans several days across the Sacred Valley.

What materials are included in the retreat package?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day! This includes an extensive range of premium spray paint colours, various nozzle types (caps) for different effects, protective clothing, and the painting surface itself. We also bring sketching materials so you can plan your design first. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a bit dusty!

What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor session?

Cusco’s weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. We have access to several covered outdoor locations and indoor studios that allow us to continue the creative flow even if it rains. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never cancel a session. If the weather is truly extreme, we will work with you to reschedule or find a suitable indoor alternative.

Can we take our artwork home with us after the workshop?

Absolutely! While we love creating large collective murals that foster teamwork, we also offer the option for participants to work on individual high-quality canvases. This is a popular choice for retreats because it allows everyone to take a piece of their Peruvian inspiration home with them. Just let us know your preference when booking so we can prepare the right materials for your group.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

Booking is simple and stress-free! You can request a quote via our website based on your group size and dates. We don't require any upfront payment—you only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied. This gives you total peace of mind while planning your retreat in Peru. Once the details are confirmed, we handle all the logistics so you can focus on the fun!

The experience

Why choose a graffiti retreat in the historic capital of the Incas? Because there is no better way to recharge your batteries than by doing something completely outside your comfort zone in one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Here is why our workshops stand out:

Break the creative block: Spray painting requires a different mindset than traditional art, helping you find new ways to solve problems. 🧠
Professional mentors: Learn from actual street artists who live and breathe this culture every single day.
Stress relief: There is something incredibly therapeutic about the hiss of a spray can and the physical movement of painting big. 🔥
Unique souvenirs: Forget the alpaca keychains—create a custom canvas that actually means something to you.
Zero risk: With our pay-after-the-event policy and 100% satisfaction guarantee, you can book with total confidence.
Inclusive fun: Age, fitness, and skill level don't matter here; if you can hold a can, you can create! 🚀

Step by step

Arrival and artist meet-up: Meet your professional graffiti mentor at our vibrant Cusco studio or selected outdoor location. ✨
Street art history: Dive into a brief, high-energy session about the evolution of graffiti from New York subways to the streets of Peru.
Safety and gear up: Suit up in your protective gear and learn how to handle the spray cans and professional nozzles safely.
Technique masterclass: Practice basic can control, including how to create thin lines, fades, and those iconic "drips" that define street art. 🎨
Concept sketching: Grab a marker and sketch out your creative vision, blending local Cusco inspiration with your personal style.
First layers: Start the piece by blocking in the "fill" colours and shapes on your canvas or wall.
Defining the details: Learn the professional "cut-back" technique to sharpen your edges and add highlights that make the art pop. 🔥
The final outline: Apply the power line—the final outline that brings the whole piece together into a masterpiece.
Photos and celebration: Step back, admire your work, and grab photos of your group’s incredible new skills against the Andean backdrop! 🏆

Local culture

Cusco is a city where ancient Incan stonework meets modern urban rebellion. While most visitors focus on the archaeological wonders, there is a thriving underground street art scene in neighbourhoods like San Blas and the outskirts of the city. Graffiti here often incorporates "Andean Futurism," blending traditional textiles and folklore with sharp, modern spray-paint techniques. It’s a place where colours feel brighter because of the high altitude and the creative energy is truly infectious.

Fun Fact: Did you know that some street artists in Cusco use imagery of the 'Chakana' (Incan Cross) in their tags to bridge the gap between ancient spirituality and modern urban culture? 🏔️🎤
