Do the students need any previous art experience?

Absolutely! Our Maldonado workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our pro artists start with the basics of can control and safety before moving on to techniques. By the time we start the main mural, everyone will feel confident enough to contribute their own style. It’s all about the process and having a blast while learning a new skill together.

Is it safe for secondary school students?

We prioritise safety above all else. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every participant. Our spray paints are low-odour and we always work in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our instructors are trained to oversee the group closely, ensuring everyone uses the equipment correctly and follows safety protocols throughout the entire session.

How long does a typical workshop last?

A standard workshop for secondary schools in Maldonado usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of a large-scale piece. If you have specific scheduling needs or want a more intensive full-day art project, we can definitely customise the duration to fit your school timetable.

What materials do we need to provide?

We take care of everything! Graffitifun provides all the professional spray cans in a huge range of colours, protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the 'canvas' (which could be mobile film walls, boards, or an actual wall if permitted). We just need access to a suitable space and some enthusiastic students ready to get creative.

Can we choose a specific theme for the mural?

Graffiti is a fantastic way to explore themes like identity, community, and social issues. We can tailor the workshop to focus on a specific subject you are covering in class. Whether it's environmental awareness or local history in Uruguay, our artists can help students translate those concepts into a powerful visual message on the wall.

What happens if we need to cancel or the artist is sick?

We understand that school plans can change. That’s why we don’t require any upfront payment – you pay after the workshop is completed. Plus, we have a backup pool of professional artists available. This means even if an instructor falls ill, we can almost always send a replacement to ensure your school event goes ahead as planned.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your students in Maldonado? Beyond the obvious fun, it’s a powerful educational tool that connects with young people in a way traditional art classes often can't. Check out the benefits:

Boosts confidence: Seeing a giant piece of art come to life gives students a massive sense of achievement.
Encourages teamwork: You can't paint a mural alone! Students learn to communicate and coordinate to finish the piece.
Safe professional guidance: We teach them the difference between vandalism and street art in a controlled, legal environment.
Stress relief: Spraying paint is incredibly therapeutic and a great break from exam pressure.
Professional kit: We use top-tier gear, so the kids feel like real artists from the moment they put on their suits.
Zero hassle for teachers: We handle the setup, the mess, and the artists—you just enjoy the results!

Step by step

Intro and safety brief: We kick things off with a high-energy intro to the world of street art and a vital safety demonstration on how to use the gear properly.
Mastering the can: Students get their first hands-on experience, learning how to control pressure, distance, and finger placement to create different lines.
Tagging and sketching: Every student gets to design their own 'tag' or nickname, practicing the flow and lettering styles that define classic graffiti.
Concept development: The group works together to brainstorm a central theme or message for their collective masterpiece.
Filling and fading: We teach the 'cool stuff'—how to create smooth gradients, colour transitions, and solid fills that make the art pop.
Outlining and highlights: The pros show the students how to add sharp outlines and 3D effects to give their work depth and professional flair.
The final mural: Everyone collaborates on a large-scale project, applying their new skills to leave a lasting (or temporary) mark on the school environment.
Review and photos: We wrap up with a group photo in front of the art and a quick chat about what everyone learned during the experience.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 2 to 3 hours, but we can adapt to follow your school's period bells.
Group size: We cater to everything from small art clubs (10+ students) to entire year groups with multiple artists.
What's included: All paint, professional masks, gloves, disposable suits, and mobile canvases if needed.
Safety: Full health and safety briefing included; our artists are experienced in managing large student groups.
Location: We come to your school premises in Maldonado or can arrange a local external site.

Local culture

Maldonado is a city with a unique pulse, sitting right at the intersection of historic charm and modern urban energy. While visitors flock to nearby Punta del Este, the heart of Maldonado is where the real local culture thrives. The street art scene here is growing, reflecting the vibrant spirit of Uruguay. Our workshops tap into this local energy, encouraging students to draw inspiration from the city's surroundings—from the Atlantic breeze to the colourful architecture of the historic quarters.

Fun fact: Did you know that Uruguay has some of the most liberal street art laws in South America? This has turned cities like Maldonado into amazing open-air galleries where creativity is celebrated as a vital part of the community fabric! 🎨
