Do I need to have prior art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our Machala street art festival workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists will guide you through the basics of spray can control, lettering, and shading. You don't need to be 'artistic' to join in—we're all about teaching you the techniques so you can express yourself and have a blast in the process.

What materials are provided during the workshop?

We provide everything you need to create your masterpiece! This includes a wide range of premium spray paint colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable old shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for all ages?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary safety gear, including professional-grade masks and gloves. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can. We ensure the workshop area is well-ventilated and that everyone follows proper handling techniques throughout the festival event.

How long does a typical street art session last?

The duration of our festival workshops can vary, but typically a standard session lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice different nozzle techniques, sketch out designs, and complete a final piece. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy experience that fits perfectly into a busy festival schedule!

How much does it cost to book a workshop in Machala?

Because every festival and group is unique, our pricing is tailored to your specific needs. Factors like group size, the amount of paint required, and the duration of the event all play a role. We offer transparent, competitive quotes with no hidden fees. Plus, there is no upfront payment required—you only pay after the workshop is complete!

What happens if it rains during the outdoor festival?

Rain doesn't have to stop the fun! If the weather looks dodgy in Machala, we always aim to have a backup plan. This could involve moving to a covered outdoor area or an indoor space with proper ventilation. We also have backup artists on standby to ensure your event goes ahead smoothly regardless of minor scheduling hiccups or artist illness.

Can we customise the workshop theme for our event?

We love making festivals special! We can tailor the workshop theme to match your festival’s vibe, whether it's focused on local Machala culture, environmental themes, or abstract expression. We can also incorporate brand activations or community murals where everyone contributes to one giant piece of art. Just let us know your vision, and we'll make it happen.

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next Machala event? Because it's more than just painting—it's an unforgettable experience that builds confidence and connection. Here’s why we’re the top choice for street art fun:

Proper Pro Artists: Work with real street artists who live and breathe the culture, not just instructors reading from a book. 🏆
All-In Experience: We handle the logistics, from premium paints to protective gear. You just show up and create!
Zero Risk Booking: With our 'pay-after' policy and backup artists always ready, your event is in safe hands.
Inclusion for All: Our workshops are designed to be accessible to all ages and skill levels—perfect for diverse festival crowds.

Guaranteed Grins: We focus 100% on satisfaction. If your guests aren't smiling, we haven't done our job!

Step by step

Introduction & Safety: Meet your pro artist and get kitted out in protective gear. We start with a quick safety briefing and an intro to the culture.
The Basics: Learn how to hold the can, control the pressure, and swap nozzles (caps) to get different line widths.
Sketching Your Vision: Grab a piece of paper or use the wall to sketch out your initial ideas and 'tags'.
First Lines: Take to the wall or canvas! You'll start by outlining your shapes with a light 'dusting' of paint.
Filling & Fading: Learn the techniques for smooth fills and how to blend colours together for that iconic gradient look.
Outlining & Details: This is where the magic happens. Use high-contrast colours to make your design pop and add sharp outlines.
Adding Highlights: A few white or light-coloured flicks can add a 3D effect and make your street art look professional.
The Big Reveal: Step back, take some photos, and admire the collective work of the festival participants.
Clean Up: We handle the pack-down and ensure the area is left tidy, leaving only the beautiful art behind.

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can scale up for full-day festivals.
Group Sizes: We can accommodate anything from small groups of 10 to large festival crowds of 100+ over rotating sessions.
What's Included: All spray paint, caps, safety masks, gloves, protective overalls, and professional guidance.
Location: Flexible! We can set up at your festival grounds, parks, or private venues across Machala.
Safety First: We use low-odour paints where possible and provide full respiratory protection for all participants. 🛡️

Creative collaboration during a graffiti company outing

Local culture

Machala is a city that thrives on movement and growth. From the bustling Puerto Bolívar to the lively central plazas, there is a rhythm here that perfectly matches the flow of street art. While the city is famous for its agricultural exports, its creative scene is blossoming, and graffiti is becoming a key part of the local visual landscape. Our workshops celebrate this Machaleño spirit, often drawing inspiration from the lush greens of the banana plantations and the deep blues of the Pacific Ocean nearby. ✨

Fun Fact: Machala is home to several striking monuments and statues, but its walls are becoming the new canvas for storytelling. Look out for local murals that depict the history of El Oro province as you explore the city!

Pricing

We believe every creative project is unique, which is why we don't do 'one-size-fits-all' pricing. Our rates are calculated based on your group size, the duration of the event, and the specific materials required to make your vision a reality. Whether it's a small community gathering or a massive city-wide festival, we offer competitive rates with no hidden surprises. 💰

The best part? No upfront payment is required—you only pay once the workshop is finished and everyone is happy!
