Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to participate?

You don't need any prior art skills to join our cultural graffiti events in La Paz! Our professional artists guide you through every step, from basic spray can control to advanced shading techniques. Whether you're a complete beginner or a creative soul, we ensure you leave with a piece of art you're proud of. It’s all about the experience, the history, and having a blast with the cans.

Is the workshop safe and are materials provided?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep you and your clothes safe. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas, and our instructors are trained to manage groups safely. We use professional-grade spray paints that are standard in the street art industry, ensuring a genuine but secure experience for all participants.

Can we choose our own mural theme or design?

Absolutely! While we have planned creative exercises, we love it when participants bring their own flair. In our cultural events, we often encourage themes that reflect the vibrant spirit of La Paz or your own personal story. Our artists will help you translate your ideas into a spray-painted reality, giving you tips on how to make your specific vision pop on the wall or canvas.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard cultural workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of graffiti in Bolivia, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. If you have a specific schedule or a larger event in mind, we can certainly adapt the duration to fit your needs perfectly. Quality and fun aren't rushed here!

What is the maximum group size for an event?

We are incredibly flexible. We can host small, intimate groups or massive cultural festivals with hundreds of people. For very large groups, we bring in multiple backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance. Whether it's a small family gathering or a major city-wide event in La Paz, we’ve got the artistic manpower to handle it seamlessly.

Do I need to pay in advance to book?

We believe in trust and satisfaction. That’s why you don’t have to pay anything upfront. You book your session, we bring the vibe and the paint, and you only pay after the workshop is complete. This ensures you are 100% happy with the street art experience we’ve provided. It’s part of our commitment to making art accessible and stress-free for everyone.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

La Paz weather can be unpredictable! If we are planning an outdoor mural and the clouds decide to open up, we usually have indoor alternatives or can reschedule. Since we have a team of backup artists, we are very reliable and rarely cancel. We’ll work with you to ensure the event happens, come rain or shine, in a comfortable and dry setting.
