Is the graffiti workshop safe for children during school holidays?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP3 face masks to filter out fumes, as well as protective gloves and overalls to keep clothes clean. Our professional artists lead the session with a comprehensive safety briefing, ensuring everyone handles the spray cans correctly. We always work in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces to ensure a comfortable and safe environment for all holiday makers.

Do I need any previous art experience to join in?

Not at all! Our workshops in Cartagena are designed for everyone, from total beginners to budding Picassos. Our expert artists will guide you through the basics, from how to hold the can to creating professional-looking effects. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at what you've managed to create. It's all about having fun, being bold, and trying something new in a supportive environment.

What should we wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on—just in case! While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy. Since Cartagena can be quite warm, lightweight fabrics are best. Don't forget your sunglasses and some sunscreen, as many of our best spots are outdoors where the Caribbean sun is bright.

Can we take our artwork home with us?

Absolutely! We have several options for school holiday groups. You can work together on a massive communal mural, which is a fantastic way to bond and create something huge. Alternatively, each participant can create their own individual masterpiece on a canvas or board to take home as a unique souvenir of their time in Cartagena. We can even mix and match both formats to suit your group's size.

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

Cartagena's weather is usually beautiful, but if we catch a Caribbean rain shower, we've got you covered. We have access to several covered outdoor areas and indoor studios where the creative fun can continue regardless of the weather. We monitor the forecast closely and will coordinate with you to ensure your workshop happens in a dry, comfortable space. Your holiday plans won't be ruined by a bit of rain!

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

Booking is easy and flexible. You can use our online cost calculator to get an instant estimate, then simply get in touch to save your date. The best part? We don't require any upfront payment. You only pay once the workshop is finished and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. We also have backup artists on standby, so you never have to worry about last-minute cancellations.

Local culture

Cartagena is a city where history meets the cutting edge. While the Walled City is famous for its colonial charm, the nearby neighbourhood of Getsemaní has become a world-renowned gallery of street art. Our workshops tap into this vibrant energy, drawing inspiration from the tropical colours and local stories that decorate the city's walls. Did you know? Many of the murals in Getsemaní tell the story of the city’s resistance and cultural heritage! 🇨🇴

Fun Fact: Cartagena's street art scene is so respected that international artists fly in just to leave their mark on the walls of Calle de las Sombrillas! ⛱️

In our school holiday sessions, we don't just teach you how to paint; we connect you with the local "Costeño" spirit. You'll be using the same vibrant palettes found in the local architecture—bright yellows, deep blues, and fiery reds—making your artwork a true piece of Cartagena culture. 🌴
