Do I need to be artistic to join the workshop?

You definitely don't need any prior art experience or drawing skills to join our Barranquilla workshop. Our professional street artists are experts at guiding beginners through the entire process, from holding the can correctly to masterfully layering colours. We focus on having fun and expressing your unique personality through paint, so just bring your enthusiasm and we will handle all the technical bits for you.

What materials are included in the price?

We provide everything you need to create a masterpiece. This includes a wide range of professional-grade spray cans in various colours, high-quality caps for different effects, protective gloves, masks, and coveralls to keep your clothes clean. We also supply the canvases or designated wall space. The only thing you might want to bring is a bottle of water and some comfortable shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for tourists?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and protective gloves to all participants. Our workshops usually take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal graffiti zones. Our instructors also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring that the cans are handled correctly and that everyone maintains a safe distance while painting.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

The standard tourist workshop lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the local street art scene, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time for you to complete your piece. If you have a specific schedule or are part of a larger group, we can often adjust the duration to fit your itinerary perfectly.

What happens if it rains on the day of my booking?

Barranquilla is known for its sunshine, but if we do get a tropical downpour, we have several options. We often work at covered outdoor locations that stay dry. If the weather is too extreme, we have backup indoor studios where we can switch to painting on large canvases. We also have a flexible rescheduling policy and backup artists available to ensure your experience goes ahead smoothly without unnecessary cancellations.

How do I pay for my workshop experience?

We offer a very flexible'pay-after-the-event' policy for our standard workshops, which means you don't have to worry about upfront payments. Once the workshop is finished and you are 100% satisfied with your street art experience, you can settle the payment. We accept various payment methods, but it's always best to clarify your preferred method when you request your custom quote via our booking form.
