Do I need to be an artist to join the retreat?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed to join our creative retreat in Pereira! Our professional artists are expert mentors who specialise in guiding beginners. We start with the basics of spray can control and safety, ensuring you feel confident before you hit the wall. It’s all about the joy of discovery and self-expression, not about being a perfect artist on day one. Everyone has a creative spark; we just help you light it!

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a worry-free experience! This includes high-quality spray paint in a rainbow of colours, professional-grade masks, gloves, protective suits, and the canvases or wall space. We also suggest bringing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little 'colourful' and plenty of enthusiasm. We handle the logistics so you can focus entirely on your creative journey amidst the Colombian landscape.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority. We use low-odour, professional spray paints and provide high-quality respiratory protection (masks) and gloves for every guest. Our instructors are trained in workshop safety protocols and will provide a thorough briefing before any paint is sprayed. We ensure the environment is well-ventilated, and our backup artist policy means your retreat is guaranteed to go ahead safely and smoothly no matter what.

How long does a typical retreat session last?

Our Pereira retreats are highly customisable! While a standard creative session usually lasts between 2.5 to 4 hours, full-day or multi-day retreat packages can be arranged to include deeper artistic exploration and mindfulness activities. Because we don't require upfront payments, you have the flexibility to discuss your specific timeline with us during the booking process to ensure the pace feels exactly right for your group.

Who is this retreat workshop designed for?

The Pereira retreat is perfect for a wide range of groups! We regularly host corporate teams looking for a fresh perspective, groups of friends on a wellness getaway, and even solo travellers looking to connect with others. While the retreat format is designed for adults and teens seeking a deeper experience, we can adapt the intensity for younger participants if you're planning a family-focused creative getaway.

What happens if it rains during our outdoor session?

While we can't control the tropical Colombian weather, we always have a plan B! We work with various indoor and sheltered venues in and around Pereira to ensure your retreat isn't washed out. If the clouds roll in over the Coffee Axis, we simply move the creativity under cover. With our reliable team and local knowledge, your creative breakthrough is protected from the elements.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti retreat in the Pearl of the Otún? It's the ultimate blend of urban grit and rural tranquility. Here’s why our workshop is the highlight of any Pereira itinerary:

💪 Total Stress Relief: There is nothing more therapeutic than the 'hiss' of a spray can and the physical flow of making art.
☕ Stunning Locations: We host workshops in beautiful urban spaces or lush rural fincas surrounding the city.
🎨 Expert Mentorship: Learn from actual street artists who live and breathe the Colombian urban art scene.
🤝 Deep Connection: Our retreat format encourages collaboration and shared storytelling through visuals.
🏆 Inclusive for All: You don't need an ounce of talent—just a willingness to try something new and have fun!
🔥 Zero Risk: With our 'pay after' policy and backup artists, your event is safe with us.

Step by step

The coffee greeting: Kick off your retreat with a local brew as we introduce you to the vibrant world of urban art and your expert mentors.
Concept & mindfulness: We begin with a short session on 'visual intention', helping you decide what message or vibe you want to express on the canvas.
Mastering the tool: Learn the essential techniques of spray painting, from creating thin 'skinny' lines to bold 'fat' fills and smooth gradients.
Sketching the vision: Use specialized markers to draft your design, getting the proportions and flow just right before the paint starts flying.
The first layer: Start applying your base colours, feeling the unique pressure of the can and the satisfaction of seeing the surface transform.
Detailing & character: This is where your piece comes alive! Add shadows, highlights, and those crisp outlines that make graffiti pop.
Collaborative mural: Depending on your choice, we often end with a group piece where everyone contributes to a massive, shared work of art.
Photos & reflection: We capture high-quality photos of your progress and the final result, followed by a relaxed group chat about the creative process.

Local culture

Pereira isn't just the heart of the coffee trade; it's a city pulsating with hidden artistic energy. From the modern vibe of Avenue Circunvalar to the traditional charm of its surrounding fincas, the "City of Open Doors" is the perfect backdrop for a creative recharge. Street art here often reflects the rich biodiversity of the region, and our workshops tap into that local passion for colour and life.

Fun Fact: Did you know Pereira is part of the UNESCO World Heritage 'Coffee Cultural Landscape'? The vibrant colours of the local Willys jeeps (Yipaos) draped in coffee sacks actually served as some of the earliest 'street art' inspiration for the region! ☕🚙
