- Street art history tour: A brief, engaging talk about the roots of graffiti and how it evolved into the global art movement we see in Montevideo today.
- Mastering the nozzle: Our artists demonstrate different 'caps' and pressure techniques, letting everyone practice their first lines on a practice wall.

- Can control practice: Learning to create fades, outlines, and 'cuts' to give the artwork depth and that professional street-style look.
- The main event: The group works together on a large-scale mural or individual canvases, applying their new skills under expert guidance.
- Final touches and detailing: We show the youth how to add highlights and sharp outlines to make their work really 'pop' off the wall.
- Crew photoshoot: Once the masterpiece is complete, we take high-quality photos of the group with their work to remember the day.
- Clean up and wrap: We pack up the gear, ensuring the area is tidy, leaving behind only the inspiration and the finished artwork!

Do the participants need any previous art experience?
Absolutely! Our workshops in Montevideo are designed for all skill levels. Whether they've never touched a spray can or they’re already sketching in notebooks, our professional artists provide step-by-step guidance. We start with the basics of nozzle control and safety before moving onto more complex techniques, ensuring everyone feels confident and creative by the end of the session. It's all about expression, not perfection!
What safety measures do you have in place for youth projects?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep everyone safe and clean. Our spray paints are selected for low toxicity, and we always conduct youth projects in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor halls with proper extraction. Our instructors are also trained to supervise groups closely, ensuring a fun and risk-free environment for every young creator.
How long does a typical graffiti workshop last?
A standard youth workshop in Montevideo typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives the group enough time to learn the history of street art, practice their techniques, and complete a final collaborative mural or individual canvases. We can also adapt the schedule for full-day intensive sessions or multi-day projects if you're looking for a deeper dive into the world of urban art.
Can the workshop take place at our own location?
We are flexible! While we have several 'favourite' street art spots around Montevideo where we regularly host sessions, we can also come to your location. If you have a school yard, community centre wall, or a private space, our team will check it for suitability. We bring all the necessary equipment, including floor protection, to ensure we leave the site exactly as we found it—plus some new art!
Do we need to pay in advance for the youth project?
We believe in 'No stress, just art!' That’s why we don’t require any upfront payments. You can book your date and confirm the details with us, and the payment is only handled after the workshop has been successfully completed. We want you to be 100% satisfied with the experience and the smiles on the participants' faces before any money changes hands.
What should the participants wear and bring?
We suggest wearing comfortable clothes and old trainers that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full protective body suits and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a bit messy! Other than that, just bring your energy and creativity. We provide all the professional spray cans, caps, masks, and canvases required for the project. We’ve got the technical stuff covered!
