How it works

  1. Intro & safety: We start with a bang! Meet your pro artist, grab your gear, and learn the essential safety rules for using spray cans.
  2. The blank canvas: Whether it's a massive wall or a personal canvas, we'll prep the surface for your creative explosion.
  3. First lines: Your instructor demonstrates 'can control'—learning how to make thin lines, fat drips, and smooth fades.
  4. Sketching the vision: Use chalk or light paint to map out your design. Don't worry, our artists are right there to help with proportions!
  5. Fill-ins: Time to get colourful! Learn how to fill large areas efficiently without wasting paint or creating messy runs.
  6. Outlining & highlights: This is where the magic happens. We add sharp outlines and 'shines' to make your artwork pop off the wall.
  7. Style details: Add those final street art flourishes—shadows, bubbles, or 'splatter' effects for that authentic gritty look.
  8. The big reveal: Step back, admire your work, and take those all-important photos for the 'Gram!

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our workshops are specifically designed for beginners. Most of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics, from nozzle control to layering colours, ensuring you walk away with a piece you're proud of. It is all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed, supportive environment.🎨

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, spray paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or trainers! Since our festival workshops in Montevideo are often outdoors, don't forget to bring some sunscreen and a hat if it is a sunny Uruguayan day.☀️

Is the spray paint safe to use?

The safety of our participants is our top priority. We provide professional-grade filtered masks and nitrile gloves for everyone. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or large open spaces. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can, ensuring a worry-free creative experience for all ages!💪

What is the minimum age for participants?

We believe in the power of street art for everyone! Our standard festival workshops are suitable for children aged 6 and up. For the younger kids, we focus on larger shapes and collaborative pieces, while teenagers and adults can dive deeper into technical styles. It is a fantastic multi-generational activity that brings the whole family together.👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

How much does a street art workshop cost in Montevideo?

While we don't have a fixed price list, our rates are very competitive and depend on your group size and the specific festival setup. We offer flexible packages ranging from small private groups to large-scale public activations. You can get an instant estimate using our Cost Calculator, or simply request a bespoke quote—we don't require any upfront payment!✨

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A typical festival workshop session lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for the safety briefing, learning basic techniques, sketching your design, and completing your final masterpiece. However, for large festivals in Montevideo, we can run continuous 'drop-in' sessions throughout the day to accommodate hundreds of visitors. We can easily adapt the schedule to fit your event!⏱️

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

Our workshops are all-weather events! If the Montevideo weather decides not to cooperate, we usually have backup indoor locations or can set up professional marquees to keep the creative energy flowing. Plus, we have a pool of backup artists ready to go, so you never have to worry about a session being cancelled last minute. We've got you covered!🌧️
