Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any artistic experience to join?

Absolutely not. Our Guadalajara workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our professional artists will guide you through every stage, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading. You will be amazed at how much you can achieve in just a couple of hours with the right guidance and a bit of creative spark. It is all about having fun and trying something new.

What kind of safety gear do you provide?

Safety is our priority. We provide high quality FFP masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. The spray paint we use is professional grade and we conduct our sessions in well ventilated outdoor areas or spacious studios. Our instructors provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry free environment where you can focus entirely on your masterpiece and the music.

Can you host the workshop at my specific location?

Yes, we are very flexible. While we have fantastic partner locations in Guadalajara, we can also bring the workshop to you if you have a suitable space. Whether it is a hotel courtyard, a private villa, or an event space, our mobile team can set up the boards and plastic protection to ensure a clean and professional setup. Just let us know your preferred location when you request your quote.

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

Guadalajara has a beautiful climate, but we always have a plan B. If the weather looks like it might rain, we can often move the session to a covered outdoor area or an indoor studio space. We also have backup artists available to ensure your booking goes ahead as planned. We will stay in close contact with you leading up to the session to make sure everything runs smoothly.

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you do not mind getting a little bit of paint on. Even though we provide full protective overalls, spray paint is permanent and a little bit of accidental overspray can sometimes happen. Closed toe shoes are a must for safety. Other than that, just bring your energy and perhaps some inspiration from the beautiful murals you have seen around the city.

How long does the entire experience last?

Our standard tourist workshops typically last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the movement, practice basic techniques, and complete a final collaborative or individual piece. If you are looking for a more intensive masterclass, we can easily extend the duration to 3 hours or more. We aim to keep the energy high and the creativity flowing throughout the entire session.

How do I book and when do I need to pay?

Getting started is easy. You do not need to pay anything upfront. Simply fill out our contact form or use our online cost calculator to get a bespoke quote based on your group size. Once you are happy with the details, we will lock in the date and artist for you. You only pay after the workshop is completed, ensuring you are 100 percent satisfied with your urban art experience.
