Do we need any previous drawing skills to join?

Not at all! Our youth projects are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to budding Picassos. Our professional artists break down the process into easy, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex 'pieces'. It is all about the process, learning a new skill, and having a blast with your friends in a supportive environment.

Is the workshop safe for teenagers and young adults?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks, and we use spray paints that comply with safety standards. Our instructors are experienced professionals who supervise the group at all times, ensuring everyone uses the equipment correctly. We also make sure the workshop takes place in a well-ventilated area or outdoors to ensure a comfortable and safe environment for all participants.

How long does a typical youth graffiti session last?

The duration is flexible to suit your needs, but most of our youth projects in Merida last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on spray time for everyone to finish their masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive full-day experience or a multi-day mural project, we can certainly arrange that too!

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need! This includes a wide range of professional spray paint colours, caps (nozzles) for different effects, protective clothing, masks, gloves, and the 'canvas'—which could be a wall, large wooden boards, or individual canvases. You just need to show up in clothes you don't mind getting a bit of paint on (just in case!) and bring plenty of creative energy. We handle the rest.

Can we create a permanent mural for our community centre?

Absolutely! We love it when groups want to create something lasting. We can organise the workshop so that the youth group works together on one large, cohesive mural that can be displayed at your youth centre, school, or a local community space. It is a fantastic way to build teamwork and leave a positive, colourful mark on the city. We will help guide the design to ensure a professional-looking result.

How much does a youth graffiti workshop cost?

Our pricing is flexible and depends on the number of participants, the duration of the event, and the specific materials required. Because every youth project is unique, we provide bespoke quotes to ensure you get the best value. The best part? There is no upfront payment required—you only pay after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. Get in touch for a quick quote!

Where in Merida do the workshops take place?

We can host workshops at various locations across Merida. Often, we use dedicated street art spaces or outdoor areas that allow for spray painting. If you have a specific venue in mind, such as a school yard or a community park, we can usually make that work too, provided we have the necessary permissions. We are mobile and can bring the entire graffiti experience directly to your group's location.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your youth project in Merida? It's more than just painting on a wall—it's about building confidence, teamwork, and finding a voice. Here is why our sessions are a total hit:

Total Creative Freedom: There are no 'wrong' lines in graffiti. It’s the perfect way for young people to express their unique personality. ✨
Team Building: Nothing brings a group together like collaborating on a massive, colourful mural.
Skill Building: Participants learn real artistic techniques, from colour theory to spatial awareness and fine motor skills. 🏆
Boosted Confidence: Seeing a giant piece of art you created yourself is a massive ego boost (the good kind!).
Safe & Professional: We handle the logistics and safety, so leadership can relax and enjoy the fun.
Unforgettable Memories: This isn't your average classroom activity—this is an experience they'll be talking about for years. 💪

Step by step

The warm-up: We kick things off with a brief history of street art and an introduction to the different styles you see around Merida.
Sketching your ideas: Grab a marker and paper! Before hitting the wall, we help you sketch out your ideas and plan your colour palette.
Can control 101: Our pros show you the ropes—how to hold the can, how to control the pressure, and how to swap caps for different line widths.
Outline and fill: Time to start! You'll learn how to lay down your first outlines and fill in large areas evenly without those pesky drips.
Adding the flare: This is where the magic happens. We teach you techniques like fading, highlighting, and adding shadows to make your art pop.
The final touch: Use 'skinny caps' to add sharp outlines and intricate details that really bring your character or tag to life.
Group photo: Stand back and admire the work! We'll take photos of the group with their completed mural or individual pieces.
Clean-up: We wrap up by tidying the area, ensuring we leave the spot as clean as we found it (except for the beautiful art, of course!).

Good to know

Duration: Usually 1.5 to 3 hours, but we can tailor sessions for full-day events.
Group Sizes: Perfect for small crews or large youth organisations (from 10 to 100+ people).
Everything's Included: We provide professional spray cans, caps, protective suits, masks, gloves, and the painting surface.
Safety First: Active supervision by experienced artists and full PPE provided for all participants.
Weather Proof: We have indoor options or can rearrange if the Andean rain decides to show up! 🔥

Local culture

Merida isn't just about the breathtaking cable car and student vibes; it's a city with a soul that craves expression. From the bustling streets near the University of the Andes to the quiet plazas, there is a hidden language of street art waiting to be explored. Our workshops tap into this local 'Merideño' energy, encouraging youth to contribute to the city's visual narrative in a positive way. We often draw inspiration from the surrounding Sierra Nevada peaks and the colourful colonial architecture found in the city centre.

Fun Fact: Merida is often called the "City of Gentlemen" (Ciudad de los Caballeros), but when it comes to the local street art scene, it’s all about bold, modern energy and breaking the rules of traditional art! 🏔️

Pricing

Every youth project is a little bit different—some want a massive community mural, while others prefer individual canvases to take home. Because of this, our prices depend on group size and setup. We aim to keep our workshops accessible and provide the best value for youth organisations in Merida.

No upfront payment required! You only pay once the workshop is done and everyone is buzzing from the experience. Want to get a price for your group?
