Is the graffiti workshop safe for children during school holidays?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality spray paints and provide all participants with protective gloves, masks, and aprons to keep clothes clean. Our professional artists supervise the entire session, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast. It’s a controlled, creative environment where the only thing that gets wild is the imagination! 🎨

Do the kids need any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for all skill levels, from total beginners to budding Rembrandts. Our artists break down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to 'pieces'. By the end of the session, even those who thought they couldn't draw a stick figure will be amazed at the masterpiece they've created. ✨

What should the participants wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing 'art-friendly' clothes—items you wouldn't mind getting a little paint on, just in case! While we provide protective gear like ponchos and gloves, those spray cans can sometimes be unpredictable in the hands of a mini-Picasso. Comfortable shoes are also a must as we'll be standing and moving around while we create our street art. 👟

What is included in the workshop price?

Usually, the price includes the hire of a professional artist, all spray paint (in a rainbow of colours!), masks, gloves, and a surface to paint on. Depending on the package you choose, kids might paint on a communal wall or take home their own individual canvas. We provide everything needed to go from a blank space to a finished work of art. 🎒

How long does a typical school holiday graffiti session last?

A standard school holiday session usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of the main artwork. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy high and focus sharp without the kids getting overtired. ⏱️

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

Barranquilla is known for its sunshine, but if the weather doesn't play ball, we have options! We can often move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space using water-based, low-odour spray paints that are safe for indoor use. We always have a backup plan to ensure the school holiday fun doesn't get washed away. 🌧️

How do I book a session for a group in Barranquilla?

Booking is easy! Simply use our online cost calculator to get a rough estimate, or reach out via our contact form for a bespoke quote. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we can usually accommodate last-minute bookings, though we recommend planning ahead during the busy 'vacaciones' season to secure your preferred date and time. 📅

Local culture

Barranquilla isn't just a city; it's a living canvas. From the world-famous Carnival to the mural-lined streets of the Barrio Abajo, creativity is in the DNA of every 'Currambero'. Our workshops draw inspiration from this local flair, encouraging participants to use the bright yellows, deep blues, and fiery reds that define the coastal Colombian vibe. We often discuss how street art contributes to the city's cultural identity, transforming urban spaces into public galleries. 🎭

Fun Fact: Barranquilla is known as 'La Arenosa' (The Sandy One), but these days it’s looking more like 'La Colorida' thanks to the incredible explosion of street art popping up near the Malecón and the city centre!
