Why choose us in Montevideo?

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your after-school programme in the capital? It’s simple: it’s the ultimate way to engage kids and teens who might not connect with traditional sports or arts. Here is why we are the go-to crew in Montevideo:

🔥 Confidence boost: Seeing a massive piece of art you created yourself is an incredible feeling for any student.
✨ Total inclusion: Graffiti is a great equaliser; you don't need to be an "artist" to create something that looks professional.
🎨 Zero stress booking: With backup artists on standby, we never cancel. Your event is safe with us!
💪 Professional gear: We use the same high-quality cans the pros use, but with all the safety kits included.
🎉 Pay later: We are so confident you’ll love the vibe that we don't ask for payment until the spraying is done.

How it works

Arrival and gear up: We kick things off by handing out the 'artist kits'—masks, gloves, and suits to keep everyone safe and clean.
Street art history: A quick, high-energy intro into the world of graffiti, from New York beginnings to the vibrant walls of Montevideo.
The 'Tag' masterclass: Every student learns to design their own unique signature using our online Tag Creator for inspiration.
Can control basics: We demonstrate how to hold the spray can, how to control the pressure, and how to create thin vs thick lines.
Sketching the piece: Participants sketch their main design onto the wall or canvas using light colours to get the proportions right.
Filling and fading: This is the fun part! Students learn how to blend colours and create amazing gradients and 'fills' inside their letters.
The 'Outlining' touch: We teach the secret to making art pop—adding sharp black or white outlines to define the shapes.
Adding highlights: A few final 'shines' and effects are added to give the artwork a professional, 3D look.
Group photo and wrap-up: We celebrate the fresh masterpieces with a group photo shoot before packing down the gear.

Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep clothes clean. Our professional artists are trained to supervise groups of all ages, ensuring that the spray cans are used correctly and responsibly. We use low-odour, high-quality paints wherever possible to ensure a comfortable breathing environment for the budding artists while they work on their masterpieces.

Do students need previous art experience to join?

Not at all! Our after-school workshops are designed for everyone, from those who can't draw a stick figure to naturally gifted artists. Our instructors break down the process into easy-to-follow steps, starting with basic lines and moving on to filling and shadowing. We focus on the 'fun' element of creativity, ensuring every student walks away with a piece of art they are genuinely proud of.

How long does a typical after-school session last?

A standard after-school session usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the history of street art, practice their spraying techniques on a test surface, and then complete their final project. We can easily adjust the duration to fit the specific schedule of your school or youth club in Montevideo to ensure a seamless experience.

Where in Montevideo do these workshops take place?

We bring the art studio to you! We can set up in school playgrounds, local community centres, or even sports fields. If you don't have a suitable outdoor space, we can also look into providing a professional studio location. As long as there is good ventilation and space for our mobile graffiti walls, we can make the magic happen almost anywhere across the city.

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

We provide everything! Your booking includes all necessary spray paint in a vibrant range of colours, protective clothing (masks, gloves, suits), and the surfaces to paint on—whether that is a shared wall or individual canvases. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and wear some old clothes and shoes just in case a little bit of 'creative dust' finds its way onto you.

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

Flexibility is key for us. If the weather doesn't play ball for an outdoor session, we usually look to move things under a covered area or indoors with extra ventilation. If that’s not possible, we are happy to reschedule the session for a clearer day. We have backup artists available too, so we almost never have to cancel a workshop due to staffing issues!
