Do the students need any prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our workshops are specifically designed for beginners. We start with the absolute basics, including how to hold the spray can, controlling pressure, and basic line work. Our professional artists are there to guide students every step of the way, ensuring that even those who don't think they are 'artistic' walk away with a piece of work they are genuinely proud of. It's all about boosting confidence!

Is the spray paint safe for secondary school students?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls for every student to wear during the spray-painting process. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas, and we use spray paints that comply with safety standards. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun and risk-free environment for everyone.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

The typical secondary school graffiti workshop in Santa Marta lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the introductory talk, safety briefing, technique practice on plastic film or practice boards, and the final creation of their own masterpiece. We find this timeframe keeps energy levels high and fits perfectly within a standard school day or an afternoon extracurricular slot.

What is the maximum group size you can accommodate?

We are very flexible! We can accommodate small classes of 15 students or larger year groups of up to 100+ by bringing in extra professional artists. For very large groups, we often split them into smaller rotating stations to ensure everyone gets plenty of hands-on time with the cans and individual attention from our instructors. No group is too big for a bit of creative chaos!

What materials do we need to provide as a school?

We don't want you to worry about hidden costs or logistics. We provide everything: a huge variety of premium spray paint colours, caps, protective gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the surfaces to paint on. We can set up temporary 'walls' using stretch wrap or provide individual canvases depending on your preference. All we need from the school is a suitable outdoor space and a group of excited students!

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

Santa Marta's weather is usually beautiful, but if it rains, we have backup plans. We can either move the workshop to a covered outdoor area or use large indoor spaces with high ceilings and extra ventilation. If the weather looks truly impossible, we have a flexible rescheduling policy. Plus, with our backup artist system, we guarantee that your workshop will never be cancelled due to staff illness.

Can the workshop be linked to a specific curriculum theme?

Definitely! We love tailoring our workshops to what the students are currently learning. Whether it's a specific historical period, a social justice movement, or a literature theme, our artists can help students translate those concepts into visual street art. It’s a brilliant way to make curriculum subjects more engaging and memorable through a hands-on, multi-sensory experience.

Local culture

Santa Marta isn't just the oldest city in Colombia; it’s a living canvas where the Caribbean Sea meets the mountains. The street art scene here is exploding, with murals in the Centro Histórico and Taganga reflecting the city’s deep indigenous roots and its tropical energy. Our workshops tap into this local 'Costeño' spirit, encouraging students to draw inspiration from the bright colours of the local architecture and the rhythmic pulse of the city.

Fun Fact: Did you know Santa Marta is known as the "Pearl of the Americas"? We use that same vibrant, jewel-toned palette in our workshops to help students create art that feels as lively as a Samario sunset! 🎨

Pricing

We believe every student should have the chance to pick up a spray can, so we offer flexible pricing based on your group size and project scope. 💰

Our workshop prices in Santa Marta typically range from $100,000 to $250,000 COP per student. This includes all professional materials, safety gear, and instruction from our expert artists.
