Do I need any previous drawing or painting experience?

Absolutely not! Our workshop in Quillacollo is designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through everything from how to hold a spray can to advanced layering techniques. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive once you learn the basic mechanics and flow of the paint. It is all about the experience and having a blast with the colours!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls, shoe covers, and gloves, those tiny paint particles (overspray) have a way of finding their way onto laces or sleeves. If you're visiting Quillacollo during the sunny season, don't forget to wear sunscreen and bring a hat for our outdoor sessions!

How long does the graffiti session 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 craft, a demonstration of techniques, practice time on the 'sketch wall', and finally, the creation of your masterpiece. If you're on a tight travel schedule through the Cochabamba Department, we can sometimes adjust the timing to fit your itinerary.

Is it safe to use the spray cans?

Your safety is our priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't inhaling any fumes while you work. We also provide gloves and disposable overalls to keep your skin and clothes clean. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces, making it a safe and healthy environment for everyone to get creative and enjoy the art.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Our workshops for individual tourists or small groups are typically held on high-quality large canvases or mobile wooden walls. This means you aren't just 'painting a wall'—you're creating a piece of art that you can actually keep! If you are travelling light, we can discuss options for digital photos of your work or smaller boards that fit better in a suitcase. It is the perfect Bolivian souvenir.

Is this activity suitable for children and families?

The Quillacollo workshop is fantastic for families! We generally recommend a minimum age of 6 or 7 so the kids have enough hand strength to press the spray nozzle. We use water-based cans for younger participants where possible, and our artists are great at keeping kids engaged while ensuring they stay safe. It is a brilliant way to keep the whole family entertained during your trip.

What happens if it rains on the day?

We don't want the weather to ruin your fun. If it rains in Quillacollo, we usually move the workshop to a sheltered or indoor location with plenty of ventilation. Because we have local backup artists and flexible venues, we can almost always ensure the workshop goes ahead. If extreme weather makes it impossible, we’ll work with you to reschedule or find a suitable alternative.

Local culture

Quillacollo is far more than just a suburb of Cochabamba; it is a city of immense spiritual and cultural energy, most famous for the Virgen de Urkupiña festival. This blend of traditional Andean culture and modern Bolivian life creates a unique backdrop for street art. As you wander through the streets, you'll see how local artists are beginning to use graffiti to tell stories of heritage and modern identity.

Fun Fact: Quillacollo's name comes from the Quechua words 'Killa' (moon) and 'Collo' (hill). It’s known as the 'Land of Integration', making it the perfect symbolic place to blend your international style with local Bolivian vibes!

Our workshops often take place in spots that overlook the stunning mountain ranges, giving you all the inspiration you need. If you've already visited La Paz or Santa Cruz, you'll find that Quillacollo offers a much more intimate and laid-back atmosphere for getting creative.
