Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum age for the school holiday workshop?

Our workshops are designed for ages 6 and up. We use specialized low-pressure spray cans that are easier for smaller hands to manage, and our artists provide constant supervision. It is a fantastic way for kids and teenagers to develop fine motor skills and creative confidence in a supportive environment. Parents are more than welcome to join in the fun or watch from the sidelines while the magic happens!

Is the spray paint safe for children and teenagers?

Safety is our top priority! We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure no fumes are inhaled, along with protective suits and gloves to keep clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially equipped indoor spaces. Our professional artists are also trained in safety protocols to ensure everyone has a blast without any risks.

Do the kids need any prior drawing or art experience?

Not at all! Most of our holiday participants have never touched a spray can before. Our expert mentors start with the absolute basics—how to hold the can, how to control pressure, and how to draw a solid line. By the time the session ends, even the most hesitant beginners are usually amazed at the masterpiece they’ve managed to create on the wall.

What should my child wear to the workshop?

While we provide full-body protective suits and gloves, we always recommend wearing 'work clothes' or old sneakers that you don't mind getting a little dusty. Graffiti is a physical and sometimes messy art form! Even with the suits, a little stray paint can occasionally find its way onto shoes or sleeves, so leave the designer gear at home for the day.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard school holiday session in Montevideo typically lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale group mural. We find this timing is perfect for keeping energy levels high and focus sharp without the kids getting overtired.

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

Uruguayan weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! If the forecast looks rainy, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered or indoor location. If that’s not possible, we can reschedule the session to another day during the break. We also have backup artists available, so your holiday plans are always protected against unexpected cancellations.
