Is the graffiti workshop safe for younger students?

Absolutely. We prioritise the safety of your students above all else. We provide high-quality protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep everyone clean and safe. Our workshops use professional-grade spray paint, and our instructors are experts at managing large groups in a controlled, respectful environment. We also conduct a full safety briefing before any cans are shaken.

How long does a typical school session last?

Our school workshops in Merida typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This depends on your specific curriculum needs and the number of students participating. We can adapt the timing to fit into a standard double period or make it a full-day intensive art experience. We recommend at least 2 hours to ensure everyone gets a chance to master the techniques.

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! Your school doesn't need to worry about a thing. We bring the spray cans, tasty caps for different line widths, protective gear, and the canvases or boards. If you have a specific wall on campus you'd like us to paint, we can arrange that too. Just make sure the kids are wearing clothes they don't mind getting a bit of dust on.

Can you come directly to our school campus?

Yes, we are fully mobile! While many schools prefer us to come to their campus to save on transport costs, we can also host groups at cool local spots in Merida. Most schools find it easiest if we set up on the sports field or a well-ventilated courtyard. Our setup is clean and we ensure no overspray ends up where it shouldn't.

Does this fit into the standard art curriculum?

Our workshops are incredibly inclusive. Graffiti is a great equaliser because most students are starting from the same level of experience. It levels the playing field between 'artistic' kids and those who usually prefer sports or tech. We find that students who struggle in traditional classroom settings often thrive in this hands-on, high-energy environment.

What is the maximum group size for a workshop?

We can handle groups of almost any size. For large year groups, we often rotate students through different stations or bring in multiple professional artists to ensure every student gets individual attention. We have a deep bench of backup artists in Mexico, so we never have to cancel your event due to staff illness.

Stap voor stap

Initial consultation: We chat about your school's goals, group size, and any specific themes you want to explore, such as local Mayan history or modern Merida culture.
Design phase: Students start by sketching their ideas on paper, learning about letter structures, shadows, and the importance of planning their piece.
Safety first: Our team delivers a full safety briefing and gets everyone suited up in protective gear, ensuring a professional environment.
Cans up: Under the guidance of our street artists, students learn how to hold the can, control pressure, and create different line thicknesses.
The big outline: We help the group scale up their designs onto the canvas or wall, teaching them the 'fill-in' technique for bold colours.
Adding the details: This is where the magic happens! We show the students how to add highlights, lowlights, and those sharp 'power lines' that make graffiti pop.
Final reveal: The group steps back to admire their collective masterpiece, followed by a professional photo session with their artwork.

Lokale cultuur

Merida is a city where tradition meets a pumping modern art scene. From the historic murals in the Palacio de Gobierno to the hidden street art gems in neighborhoods like Santiago and Santa Ana, Merida is a canvas waiting to be explored. We often draw inspiration from the 'White City' aesthetics, encouraging students to mix traditional Yucatecan patterns with bold, contemporary graffiti styles. ✨

Fun fact: Many of the vibrant colours you see in Merida's street art are inspired by the natural pigments used by the ancient Maya. We love teaching students how to bridge that gap between ancient history and modern spray paint culture! 🎨
