Frequently asked questions

Is the graffiti workshop safe for teenagers?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority for youth projects in La Serena. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits to all participants. Our workshops use professional-grade spray paint, and our experienced instructors supervise every single spray. We also ensure that the workshop takes place in a well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor area to keep everyone safe while they enjoy their creative journey. Our artists are trained to manage groups of all skill levels.

How long does a typical youth workshop last?

Our youth projects usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives the group plenty of time to learn the basics, practice their tagging skills, and collaborate on a large-scale mural or individual canvases. If you have a specific schedule or timeframe to stick to for your youth organisation or school trip, just let us know! We are experts at tailoring the experience to fit your needs without rushing the creative flow.

Do the participants need any prior art experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. We start with the very basics of how to hold a spray can and move on to techniques like fading, outlining, and adding highlights. Our goal is to empower young people in La Serena to express themselves, regardless of their previous artistic experience. You'll be surprised at how quickly the group develops their own unique style under our guidance!

What materials are included in the youth project package?

We provide everything! Your booking includes all the spray cans needed (in a vibrant range of colours), protective gear like masks and suits, and the surfaces to paint on (whether that's a professional graffiti wall or individual canvases). We even bring the inspiration! All you need to bring is some old clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on (just in case), some comfortable shoes, and your creative energy.

Where do the workshops takes place in La Serena?

We are very flexible! We can host the workshop at one of our pre-approved street art locations in La Serena, or if you have a suitable space at your community centre, youth club, or school, we can come to you! As long as there is enough space and good ventilation, our mobile setup is ready to go. We'll handle the prep and the cleanup, leaving you with nothing but great memories and art.

What are the benefits of graffiti for youth development?

Graffiti is a fantastic tool for youth development! It encourages teamwork, boosts self-confidence, and provides a healthy, creative outlet for self-expression. By working on a collective mural, young people learn communication and collaboration skills. It's also a great way to engage with urban culture in a positive, legal, and constructive environment. Plus, it's incredibly fun, which is why youth groups in La Serena love it!

How far in advance should we book a youth project?

We recommend booking as early as possible to secure your preferred date, especially during the busy summer months or school holiday periods. Ideally, try to reach out to us 3-4 weeks in advance. However, we have a large team of artists in Chile, so if you have a last-minute request, give us a shout! We always do our best to accommodate every group and make the magic happen.
