What safety measures and protective gear do you provide for students?

To ensure everyone stays safe and clean, we provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and professional FFP2 masks. These masks are essential for filtering out fumes from the spray cans. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing at the start of every session, covering the correct way to handle equipment and how to maintain a safe distance from other students while painting. Your safety is our number one priority.

Can you host the graffiti workshop directly at our secondary school?

Absolutely! We understand that school schedules can be tight, so we are happy to bring the workshop to you. If your school has a suitable outdoor wall or a well-ventilated space where we can set up temporary canvas boards, we can host the event on-site. Alternatively, we can help arrange a session at one of Bogota's legal street art zones to give the kids a truly authentic experience.

Do the students need any prior drawing or painting skills?

No previous art experience is needed at all. Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and fun for everyone, regardless of their artistic ability. Our professional artists break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, from holding the can to creating complex shadows. We find that students who don't usually enjoy traditional art classes often thrive in the high-energy, physical environment of a graffiti workshop.

What kind of paint and materials are used during the workshop?

We use premium, high-pressure spray cans specifically designed for street art. These provide vibrant colours and excellent coverage. We also provide a wide variety of 'caps' or nozzles, which allow students to experiment with different line widths and effects. All the paint we use is professional-grade, ensuring the final mural looks spectacular and lasts for a long time, whether it's on a wall or a temporary board.

How long does a typical workshop last for a school group?

A standard secondary school workshop usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This timeframe allows enough room for the initial safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural. We can adjust the duration to fit your specific school timetable or double-period slots if needed, ensuring the students get a complete experience without feeling rushed.

How does the payment process work for Bogota schools?

We believe in the quality of our workshops, which is why we offer a 'pay after the event' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront costs or deposits. Once the workshop is finished and you are 100% satisfied with the experience we've provided for your students, we will handle the billing. This makes the administrative process much easier for schools and provides peace of mind for the organising teachers.

The experience

Boosts creativity: Graffiti encourages students to think outside the box and experiment with a medium they usually only see on the streets.
Team building: Collaborative murals require students to communicate and work together to achieve a unified artistic vision.
Professional guidance: Our team consists of active street artists who bring real-world experience and passion to every school session.
No risk booking: With no upfront payments and a backup artist always on standby, your school event is guaranteed to go ahead smoothly.
Cultural connection: We link the workshop to Bogota's rich urban history, providing a lesson in art and local culture simultaneously.
Inclusive for all: Unlike traditional drawing, spray painting levels the playing field, allowing every student to produce something they are proud of.

Step by step

Introduction and history: We start with a brief, engaging look at the history of Bogota's world-famous street art scene to inspire the students.
Safety and gear: Students get kitted out in protective suits, gloves, and masks while we go over the essential 'dos and don'ts' of spray painting.
Basic techniques: Our professional artists demonstrate how to control the spray can, create clean lines, and manage pressure.
Individual practice: Each student gets their own space to practice basic shapes and get a feel for the medium under expert guidance.
Sketching the concept: The group works together to brainstorm a theme for their mural, sketching out the design on paper first.
Filling and fading: We move to the main surface, teaching the kids how to fill large areas and create cool gradient 'fades' with different colours.
Outlining and highlights: Students learn the 'pro' secrets of adding sharp outlines and white highlights to make their work pop off the wall.
The final reveal: The class steps back to admire their collective masterpiece and takes group photos to document their creative achievement.

Good to know

Our workshops are designed to be as stress-free as possible for teachers.

We can accommodate groups of almost any size, from small art clubs to entire year groups, by bringing in additional professional artists. Safety is our top priority, and we ensure a well-ventilated environment for every session. Most school workshops run for approximately 2.5 hours, but we are flexible and can adapt to your specific timetable requirements in Bogota.

Local culture

Bogota is widely recognised as the street art capital of South America. From the historic streets of La Candelaria to the massive murals lining Calle 26, the city is a living gallery. In our workshops, we don't just teach technique; we tap into this local spirit. We often discuss the cultural significance of Bogota's "distritos de graffiti" and how local artists have used their cans to tell the city's story. By participating, your students become part of a long tradition of creative expression that defines modern Bogota, learning to appreciate the difference between tagging and the professional-grade murals that decorate our urban landscape.

Pricing

We offer competitive pricing for educational institutions in Bogota to make street art accessible to as many students as possible. Our rates generally range from $100,000 to $250,000 COP per person. The final price depends on the number of participants, the location of the workshop (at your school or a public wall), and the amount of paint required for your specific project. We operate on a 'satisfaction first' basis, meaning you only pay after the workshop is complete. Request a custom quote today to get a tailored price for your school group.
