Why choose us in Cuenca?

Why choose a Graffitifun workshop for the school holidays? Because we turn 'I'm bored' into 'Look what I made!' in record time. Here is why our Cuenca sessions are the talk of the town:

How it works

Introduction & Safety: We start with a warm welcome and a quick safety brief on how to use the equipment properly.
The Art of the Tag: Kids learn the history of 'tagging' and design their own unique artist signature on paper.
Can Control: Our pros demonstrate how to control pressure, distance, and angle to get different lines and effects.
Sketching the Masterpiece: Everyone moves to the 'big canvas' to outline their main design using light colours.
Filling In: This is the loud part! We use vibrant spray colours to bring the outlines to life with solid fills.
Adding Shadows & Highlights: We teach the tricks of the trade—making letters pop with 3D effects and 'shines'.
Final Outlines: A steady hand is used to add the final crisp borders that make the artwork look professional.
The Big Reveal: We finish by taking group photos and celebrating the incredible street art created.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the graffiti workshop usually last?

Most of our holiday workshops in Cuenca run for about 2 to 2.5 hours. This gives the kids enough time to learn the basic strokes, practice their 'tag', and complete a final masterpiece on a large surface. It's the perfect length to keep them fully engaged without getting tired, making it a great morning or afternoon activity during the school break. We ensure every minute is packed with creativity!

Is the workshop safe for children?

Safety is our number one priority! We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks, to ensure everyone stays clean and safe. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used under strict supervision. Our artists are experienced in working with children and maintain a controlled, fun environment at all times. You can relax knowing your kids are in professional hands while they explore their artistic side in Cuenca.

Do the kids need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our friendly Cuenca street artists will guide the group through every step, from how to hold the can to mastering complex layering techniques. Whether they can already draw or have never picked up a paintbrush, they'll leave the session feeling like a pro. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself, regardless of previous skill levels.

What clothes should the children wear?

We recommend wearing 'old clothes' that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can sometimes be a bit messy when the creativity starts flowing! Flat, closed-toe shoes are also a must for safety and comfort while standing. Think of it as 'creative combat gear'—once they're suited up, they're ready to tackle the walls of Cuenca!

Can I book for just one child or a small group?

Absolutely! While we love hosting groups, we can also accommodate individuals or smaller siblings during our scheduled holiday sessions in the city. It’s a fantastic way for kids to meet other creative youngsters in Cuenca. If you have a specific group of friends or a large family, we can also arrange a private session just for you. Just let us know what you need and we will make it happen!

Are the materials included in the workshop price?

Everything is included in the price! We provide all the spray cans, a wide variety of paint colours, protective gear, and the canvases or wall space. We even bring the inspiration! You don't need to bring a single thing except a positive attitude and maybe a camera to snap some photos of the amazing artwork being created. We handle all the setup and the cleanup afterwards.

How do I pay, and do I need to pay upfront?

At Graffitifun, we believe in 'fun first'. That’s why we don’t require any upfront payment! You can book your spot today and only pay once the workshop is completed. This gives you total peace of mind and ensures we are 100% committed to delivering an awesome experience for your kids. We accept various payment methods after the spray paint has dried and the smiles are bright.
