Frequently asked questions

How does a graffiti workshop help prevent vandalism?

Our anti-vandalism program in Valparaiso is designed to channel creative energy into authorised, artistic expressions. By teaching the techniques and history of street art, we show participants how to create high-quality murals that the community respects. This shifts the focus from 'tagging' to 'art-making,' fostering a sense of pride and ownership over the local environment while teaching valuable artistic skills. It is about transformation, not just painting.

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our visitors have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, from how to hold the nozzle to mastering simple lines and fades. We provide a safe, supportive environment where anyone, regardless of their artistic background, can create something they are proud of. It is all about the process and having a brilliant time while learning.

What materials are included in the session?

We provide everything you need to get creative! This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks. Depending on the workshop format, we also provide the 'canvas'—whether that is a dedicated practice wall or individual boards. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you do not mind getting a bit of paint on!

Is the workshop safe for children and beginners?

Safety is our absolute priority. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and provide professional-grade respiratory masks for every participant. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before any paint is sprayed. We also ensure our workshop locations are well-ventilated and secure, making it a safe experience for all ages and skill levels.

Can we book this for a school or youth group?

Yes, we love bringing our workshops to schools, community centres, and youth groups across Valparaiso! Our anti-vandalism program is particularly popular with educational institutions looking for an engaging way to discuss social responsibility and urban art. We can tailor the curriculum to meet specific educational goals or community themes, ensuring the message resonates with your specific group of students.

Where in Valparaiso do the workshops take place?

Valparaiso is famous for its hills, but we have several accessible locations across the city. We also offer mobile workshops where we bring the entire setup—including temporary walls—to your chosen venue. Whether you want to paint in a local park, a school courtyard, or a private event space, we can make it happen. Just let us know your preferred location when booking!

What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

We understand that plans can change. That is why we offer a flexible booking policy. You do not need to pay anything upfront; you can pay after the workshop is completed. If you need to reschedule or cancel, we just ask for as much notice as possible. Plus, we always have backup artists on hand to ensure your event goes ahead even if an instructor is unwell.
