Is the spray paint safe for younger participants?
Medellín is the city of eternal spring, and we want to keep it that way! We exclusively use professional-grade, low-pressure spray cans that are safer for the environment and the participants. We also provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks. Our experienced instructors supervise every second of the youth workshop to ensure that the spray paint stays on the canvas (and not on the kids' clothes or the neighbours' walls). Safety and fun go hand-in-hand here.
Do the kids need to be good at drawing?
Absolutely no artistic experience is required! Our youth projects are designed to take participants from 'zero to hero'. Our professional graffiti artists will teach the group everything from how to hold the can and control pressure to complex shading techniques. We believe everyone has a creative spark inside them; we just provide the tools and the cool Colombian vibes to help them set it free. It is all about the process and having a blast!
How do you handle large groups of teenagers?
While our workshops are high-energy, they are also highly organised. We typically maintain a ratio of one professional artist for every 15-20 participants to ensure everyone gets individual attention and guidance. For larger youth groups in Medellín, we bring in backup artists to keep the flow smooth and the energy high. We handle all the setup and clean-up, so organisers can just relax and enjoy the transformation of the group.
Where do the workshops take place in Medellín?
Flexibility is our middle name! We can host the youth project at one of our pre-approved street art locations in Medellín, or we can come to your youth centre, school, or community hub. If we come to you, we use mobile graffiti walls or large canvases to ensure no permanent marks are left on your property. We just need an outdoor space or a very well-ventilated indoor area to get the creative juices flowing safely.
How long does a typical youth graffiti session last?
Our standard youth projects usually last between 2 to 3 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the basic techniques, practice their 'tags', and then work together on a final masterpiece. If you are planning a full-day community event or a multi-day youth project, we can easily customise the schedule to fit your needs. We are all about making the experience perfect for your specific group's timeline and goals.
What is the minimum age for participants?
We recommend our graffiti workshops for children aged 8 and up. At this age, they generally have the hand strength to operate the spray cans and the focus to follow the safety instructions. For older teenagers, we ramp up the complexity of the designs to keep them challenged and engaged. If you have a younger group, just let us know—we can often adapt the techniques to make sure everyone can participate safely.
What happens if the group doesn't enjoy the experience?
We offer a 'Fun Guaranteed' promise! Our instructors are not just artists; they are entertainers and mentors who know how to connect with young people. In the highly unlikely event that your group isn't satisfied, we will work with you to make it right. Plus, with our 'pay after the workshop' policy and backup artist availability, you can book with total confidence knowing that your youth project event is in safe, professional hands.
