Do I need any previous art experience to join?

You do not need any previous drawing skills or artistic talent to join our Merida retreat workshop. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. Whether you have never held a spray can before or you consider yourself a hobbyist, we will guide you through the process of creating something you are genuinely proud of. The goal is to relax, explore your own creativity, and enjoy the process.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Our workshops are very safe because we provide high quality protective gear for every participant. This includes professional grade masks with filters to protect against fumes, gloves to keep your hands clean, and protective suits to save your clothes from paint. All our spray paints are selected for their quality and safety standards. Our instructors also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a secure environment for your creative retreat.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We suggest wearing comfortable clothing that you do not mind getting a bit dirty, just in case. While we provide full body protective suits and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a messy business. Flat, closed toe shoes or trainers are a must for safety and stability while you work on your masterpiece. Since Merida can be quite warm, breathable fabrics are your best friend during our outdoor sessions.

How long does a typical session last?

Standard retreat workshops in Merida usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the history of street art, practice basic techniques, and complete a full project without feeling rushed. If you are looking for a more intensive experience, we can easily extend the duration or spread the activities over several days to fit your group schedule. We are all about flexibility to ensure you get the most out of your time.

Can you host the workshop at our specific retreat location?

Absolutely! Our retreat workshops are designed to be mobile. We can host the event at a dedicated street art spot in the city, or we can bring the entire setup to your hotel, villa, or corporate retreat location in Merida. As long as there is an outdoor space with adequate ventilation and permission to spray, we can transform it into a pop up graffiti studio just for your group.

What is included in the workshop package?

We take care of everything so you can focus on the fun. Your booking includes all premium spray paint in a huge variety of colours, protective gear like masks and suits, professional street art surfaces or canvases, and expert tuition from a local artist. We also handle the setup and the intensive cleanup afterwards. You simply need to turn up with your group and a positive attitude!

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

We offer a 100 percent satisfaction focus because we want you to love your experience. To make things easy and stress free, we do not require any upfront payment. You can book your date and pay after the workshop is completed. We also have backup artists on standby to ensure that your event goes ahead even if there is an unexpected emergency, so your retreat plans are always safe with us.

Local culture

Merida is a city where every corner tells a story, from the pastel facades of the Centro Historico to the hidden street art gems in the surrounding neighbourhoods. The city has a deep respect for visual arts, making it the perfect backdrop for a creative retreat. While Merida is famous for its colonial architecture and Mayan heritage, its contemporary street art scene is rapidly growing, with local artists using murals to tell stories of cultural identity and environmental beauty.

Fun fact: Merida is often called the White City because of the abundance of white limestone and painted buildings that reflect the bright Yucatan sun. This bright natural light makes every colour of spray paint look even more vivid and incredible during our outdoor sessions! ✨
