Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Our workshops during the Buenos Aires street art festival are designed specifically for beginners. You don't need any prior drawing or painting experience. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from how to hold the spray can to creating your first piece. We provide a supportive environment where the goal is to have fun, experiment with colours, and learn a new skill in the heart of the city.

Is spraying graffiti safe for participants?

We prioritse your safety above all else. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks to prevent inhaling fumes and gloves to keep your hands clean. Our spray paints are selected for their quality and safety standards. Additionally, our instructors are experienced professionals who provide clear safety briefings and supervise the entire session, ensuring a secure environment for everyone to explore their creativity during the festival.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls or aprons, spray paint is permanent and sometimes finds its way onto shoes or sleeves. It's best to wear your 'creative gear' – old trainers and comfortable trousers are ideal for moving around the canvas and getting into the groove of the street art experience.

How long does the festival workshop experience last?

Our workshops in Buenos Aires typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the local scene, learn basic techniques, and work on a collaborative or individual piece. We find this duration is perfect for keeping the energy high and ensuring everyone walks away feeling like they've truly accomplished something creative without feeling rushed.

Do I need to pay in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexible payment policy. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your festival experience. You pay after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any money changes hands. We believe in the quality of our service and want you to feel completely comfortable and confident in your booking.

Is this activity suitable for children?

The minimum age usually starts around 6 to 8 years old, depending on the specific festival setup. Graffiti is a fantastic activity for kids, helping with motor skills and creative expression. For younger participants, we use water-based spray cans or provide extra supervision to ensure they have a blast while staying safe. It’s a brilliant way for families to connect with the urban culture of Argentina together.

Can the workshop take place at a specific location?

While we usually have a set location within the festival grounds, we are highly flexible. If you are organising a private event or a specific brand activation within the festival, we can often bring our mobile graffiti walls to a location that suits you. In Buenos Aires, we work with various venues and festival organisers to ensure we’re right in the heart of the action wherever the street art vibe is strongest.

Local culture

In Buenos Aires, street art isn't just decoration; it's a conversation. From the political murals in La Boca to the whimsical designs of Villa Crespo, the city breathes creativity. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, often taking place near legendary spots like the "Pasaje Lanín" or during major cultural events. We celebrate the "porteño" passion for expression, blending traditional influences with modern graffiti styles. When you join us at a festival here, you're not just painting a wall; you're becoming part of a tradition that has turned Buenos Aires into a global street art pilgrimage site. Expect a vibe that’s as rhythmic as tango and as bold as a local asado.
