Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Our pop-up events in La Paz are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional graffiti artists will guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. You don't need any prior artistic experience to walk away with a piece of art you're proud of. It’s all about having fun and expressing your unique personality through the medium of street art.

What materials are included in the experience?

We provide everything you need for the ultimate graffiti experience. This includes a wide range of high-quality spray cans in various colours, protective clothing (overalls, gloves, and masks), and the surfaces you will be painting on. Whether we are using large canvases or a temporary wall setup, we ensure all materials are professional-grade so your artwork looks as vibrant as the city of La Paz itself.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and gloves to all participants. Our workshops usually take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces to ensure proper airflow. Additionally, our instructors are experienced professionals who provide clear safety briefings before any paint is sprayed, ensuring a secure environment for everyone to get creative and enjoy the process without any worries.

How much does a pop-up graffiti event cost?

Pricing for our pop-up events in La Paz depends on several factors, including the number of participants, the duration of the session, and the specific location setup. Because we tailor every event to the group's needs, we recommend requesting a free, no-obligation quote via our website. Remember, at Graffitifun, you don't pay anything upfront—you only pay after the workshop is complete and you're satisfied!

How long does the graffiti session last?

A typical pop-up workshop lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the history of graffiti, practice basic techniques, and work on a final masterpiece. We can also adjust the timing to fit into a larger event schedule if you are planning a festival or a corporate brand activation. We are flexible and aim to make the experience fit perfectly with your plans.

Can we paint on actual city walls?

While we love the spirit of street art, we only paint on designated surfaces provided for the workshop, such as professional canvases or temporary wooden walls. This ensures our events remain legal and respectful of La Paz's urban environment. The best part is that if you paint on a canvas, you can actually take your artwork home with you to remember the day forever!

Can you host the workshop at my private venue?

Yes, we are highly mobile! While we have preferred spots in La Paz, we can bring the pop-up event to your specific location, whether it's a hotel terrace, a school courtyard, or a private garden. As long as there is enough space and ventilation, we can set up our graffiti station almost anywhere. Just let us know your preferred location when you submit your booking request.
