Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our festival workshops in Artigas are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering complex shading techniques. You don't need any prior drawing skills—just a bit of enthusiasm and a willingness to get your hands a little colourful! We provide all the gear and guidance to ensure you leave feeling like a pro.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to create your masterpiece! This includes high-quality spray paint in a massive range of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the festival canvas or wall space for your creation. Just bring yourself, some comfortable shoes, and your most creative ideas. We’ve got the technical side completely covered for you.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and protective gloves to all participants. Our workshops in Artigas are held in well-ventilated outdoor festival spaces or large, airy indoor venues. Our lead artists are also trained in site safety, ensuring that the spray zone is managed professionally and that everyone can enjoy the creative process without any health or safety concerns.

How long does the street art experience last?

The duration can vary based on the festival schedule, but typically our Artigas workshop experiences last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice sessions, and the final creation of your street art piece. It’s the perfect length to get deeply involved without feeling rushed, fitting perfectly into your festival itinerary.

What is the maximum group size for a festival session?

We are very flexible! Since we are part of the festival atmosphere in Artigas, we can host small groups or large crowds. We often work with groups of 10 to 50 people at a time, but for larger festival activations, we can rotate hundreds of participants throughout the day. If you are booking for a specific private group within the festival, just let us know your numbers!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

It’s best to wear comfortable, older clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full-body protective overalls, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto shoes or sleeves! We recommend flat, closed-toe shoes rather than sandals. Since Artigas can get quite warm, breathable fabrics are a great choice for staying comfortable while you work on your mural.

Do you offer these workshops in other cities in Uruguay?

Yes, we love traveling! While this page is dedicated to our Artigas festival experiences, we also bring the spray paint magic to Mercedes, Montevideo, Salto, and Paysandu. Whether it's a city-wide cultural event or a private brand activation, our team of artists is mobile and ready to set up a professional graffiti zone anywhere in Uruguay. Just reach out to discuss your specific location!

Local culture

Artigas is a city that pulses with a unique border-town energy. Known as the "Capital of the Amethyst," its streets are already filled with natural beauty, but the urban art scene is rapidly catching up. The city's famous Carnival – the only one in Uruguay influenced by Brazilian Samba schools – provides the perfect rhythmic backdrop for a street art festival. We love setting up our workshops near the Plaza Batlle or along the scenic Cuareim River, where the light is perfect for capturing the vibrant hues of our spray paint. ✨

Fun Fact: Did you know Artigas sits right on the border with Brazil? You can literally walk across the International Bridge de la Concordia, making it a true melting pot of cultures, languages, and artistic styles! 🏆

This cross-cultural vibe makes Artigas one of our favourite places to host workshops. The local community is incredibly welcoming, and the mix of Spanish and Portuguese (Portuñol) spoken here adds a melodic soundtrack to every mural we create. Whether you're inspired by the local gemstones or the rhythmic beat of the drums, your art will have a home here.
