Do I need to be an artist to participate?

You don't need any prior art skills to join our Antofagasta graffiti workshop. Our professional artists are experts at teaching absolute beginners. We start with the basics of can control and nozzle pressure, guiding you through every line until you've created something you're proud of. It is all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed, creative environment while overlooking the beautiful Pacific coast.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks, a stray drop of paint can sometimes find its way onto your shoes or sleeves. Think of it as a creative 'souvenir'! Closed-toe shoes are a must for safety while moving around the painting area and handling the spray cans.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide all necessary protective equipment, including high-grade respiratory masks and gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas in Antofagasta to ensure you aren't breathing in concentrated fumes. Additionally, our instructors provide a full safety briefing before any cans are shaken, ensuring everyone handles the equipment correctly and stays safe throughout the session.

Can children join the tourist workshops?

Absolutely! While we love our adult groups, we have tailored programs for younger street artists too. Children aged 6 and up are welcome to join, provided they are accompanied by an adult. It is a fantastic way for families visiting Antofagasta to bond over a shared creative project. We use lighter cans for smaller hands where possible to make the experience enjoyable for everyone.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard tourist workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the local scene, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of time for you to complete your own masterpiece. We never rush the process, ensuring you have enough time to step back, admire your work, and take those all-important photos for your travel blog.

Can I book this if I am travelling alone?

Yes, we generally require a minimum group size to run a private session, but we often have open slots where solo travellers or couples can join a larger group. If you are travelling alone through Antofagasta, just send us a message! We will do our best to slot you into an existing workshop so you can meet fellow travellers while getting your glow on with some spray paint.

What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

We understand that travel plans in Chile can change. That is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront payments or losing money if your bus is delayed. We also have a pool of backup artists available, so even if an instructor falls ill, your creative experience in the Pearl of the North will almost certainly go ahead as planned.

Local culture

Antofagasta is a city of layers, where the industrial strength of the mining industry meets the artistic soul of the coast. The local street art scene reflects this contrast, with murals often depicting the rich history of the Salitre (saltpeter) era, the local indigenous cultures, and the stunning natural beauty of the nearby La Portada. Our workshops take place in areas where the city's urban energy is at its peak. You will notice that the light in this part of Chile is exceptionally bright, making the colours of your graffiti pop unlike anywhere else. By participating in a workshop here, you aren't just a tourist; you are engaging with the local Antofagastino spirit of resilience and creativity that defines this northern powerhouse. From the historic Barrio Histórico to the modern coastal stretches, the city is your canvas.
