How it works

  1. The warm-up: We start with a high-energy intro to the world of street art and a vital safety briefing on how to use the gear 🎤.
  2. Sketching the vision: Students grab some markers and paper to plan their 'tag' or design before touching the cans.
  3. Can control 101: Our pro artists show the kids how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create different line widths.
  4. The first layer: Time to hit the wall! Students start by blocking in the main shapes of their chosen design.
  5. Adding the flare: This is where the magic happens—adding shadows, highlights, and those cool drips that make graffiti pop ✨.
  6. The outline: We teach the trick of 'cutting' lines to make the artwork look sharp and professional.
  7. Final touches: Students add their personal tags and some background details to bring the whole piece together.
  8. The grand reveal: A group photo session with the finished masterpieces to celebrate everyone's hard work! 🏆

Frequently asked questions

What age group is the after-school graffiti workshop suitable for?

Our workshops are designed for everyone from the age of 6 and up! We tailor our after-school sessions to the specific age group attending, ensuring that younger kids get extra guidance with the spray cans while older teens can focus on more complex techniques and artistic expression. It is a fantastic way for students of all ages in Cusco to develop their fine motor skills and creative confidence in a supportive environment.

Is spray painting safe for children and students?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority at Graffitifun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are professional artists who are seasoned in managing groups of children. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier for kids to control, ensuring a fun experience without any of the risks. Plus, we always work in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces.

Do the students need any prior drawing or painting experience?

Not at all! You don't need to be the next Picasso to enjoy our sessions. Most of our students have never touched a spray can before they meet us. Our professional artists will guide your group through every step, from basic lines to advanced shading. We focus on the process and having a great time, helping every student find their own unique style by the end of the workshop.

What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?

Cusco weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got it covered! We generally look for sheltered outdoor spots or well-ventilated indoor areas. If the weather looks set to rain on our parade, we can usually reschedule or move to a covered location. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we are incredibly flexible and will do everything possible to ensure the workshop goes ahead as planned.

How long does a typical after-school session last?

A standard after-school workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, and the chance for every student to complete their own masterpiece. If you have a larger group or want a more intensive deep-dive into street art history and technique, we can easily extend the sessions to suit your school's schedule.

What do we need to provide for the workshop?

Graffitifun is all about 'no stress'! We provide everything required for the workshop. This includes all the spray paint in a vibrant rainbow of colours, protective gear (masks, gloves, suits), and the 'canvas' (usually large wooden panels or plastic film). We even bring the inspiration! Students just need to show up in comfortable clothes they don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on and bring plenty of creative energy.

How does the payment process work?

We believe in keeping things simple and flexible. Unlike many other providers, we don't require an upfront payment to book your date. You can secure your after-school workshop and then pay via invoice after the session is complete. This makes it much easier for schools and parents' associations in Cusco to manage their budgets without the hassle of immediate bank transfers.
