Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be artistic or have prior experience?

Not at all. Our Mexico City workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists guide you through every step, starting with basic spray can control and moving into more complex techniques. Most of our guests have never held a spray can before and they walk away with a masterpiece they are proud of. It is all about having fun and trying something new.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you do not mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide high quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can be a bit messy and spray mist can sometimes travel. If you have long hair, it is a good idea to bring a hair tie. We provide all the professional gear you need to stay safe and relatively clean while you paint.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks to protect you from fumes, along with nitrile gloves and protective suits. Our artists are trained to manage group safety and ensure everyone uses the equipment correctly. All our spray paint brands are professional grade and we conduct our sessions in well ventilated areas or outdoor locations across Mexico City to ensure a safe environment.

How long does the session usually last?

A standard onboarding workshop in CDMX typically lasts between 2 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time for you to complete your project. If you have specific time constraints for your group, we can often adjust the schedule to fit your needs perfectly. Just let us know your requirements when booking.

Where in Mexico City do the workshops take place?

The great thing about our onboarding service is the flexibility. We can host the workshop at one of our established street art hotspots in Mexico City, or if you have a suitable private location with enough ventilation and space, we can bring the entire setup to you. We are mobile and love exploring different neighborhoods, from the trendy streets of Roma Norte to the artistic corners of Coyoacan.

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

If the weather looks like it might rain, we usually try to move the workshop to a covered or indoor location to keep everyone dry. Because we have backup artists and flexible logistics, we can often adapt at the last minute. If outdoor painting is impossible and no cover is available, we will work with you to reschedule the session for the next best time. We want your experience to be perfect!

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Yes, definitely! We believe that the best way to remember the experience is to take a piece of it home. Depending on the workshop format you choose, you will either be painting on a large shared mural or on individual canvases. If you paint on a canvas, it is yours to keep, dry, and hang on your wall as a unique souvenir of your creative journey in Mexico City.
