Do the kids need any previous art experience?
Not at all! Our school holiday workshops in Artigas are designed for everyone, from total beginners to budding young artists. Our professional street artists guide the kids through every step, starting with basic shapes and safety. Most participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive, but they always leave with a masterpiece they are proud of. Itâs all about having fun and learning something new!
Is the graffiti workshop safe for children?
Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a thorough safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can. We use low-odour, professional-grade paints, and the workshops are held in well-ventilated areas to ensure a comfortable and secure environment for all participants.
What should the participants wear?
We recommend wearing 'old clothes' and comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide full protective gear including overalls, graffiti is a creative and sometimes messy business! Even with the best protection, a stray drop of paint might find its way onto a sleeve or a shoe. Itâs best to come prepared for a bit of colourful mess!
How long does the workshop session last?
A standard school holiday session in Artigas typically lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This gives the group plenty of time to learn the techniques, practice their strokes, and complete their final collaborative mural or individual canvas. We find this is the perfect duration to keep energy levels high and creativity flowing without the kids getting too tired. Everyone stays engaged from start to finish!
What happens if it rains on the day?
In the event of a little rain, we usually have sheltered locations or indoor alternatives ready to go so the fun doesn't stop. However, because we have a large team of backup artists across Uruguay, we are very flexible. If the weather is truly miserable, we can often reschedule the session to another day during the school holidays to ensure the kids get the best possible outdoor street art experience.
Can parents stay and watch the workshop?
Absolutely! We love it when parents stick around to see the creative process. Youâre welcome to take photos and cheer on the young artists. If youâre feeling inspired, you can even ask our artists for a few tips yourself. Itâs a great way to see what your children are achieving and capture some fantastic memories of their school holiday highlights in Artigas.
Is there a minimum age for the participants?
Our school holiday workshops are generally aimed at ages 8 and up. This is because the spray cans require a certain amount of hand strength and coordination to operate effectively. For slightly younger children, we can sometimes adapt the session with different tools, so feel free to get in touch and we can discuss the best creative options for your specific group.
