How it works

  1. The warm-up: Meet your pro artist and get a quick intro to the history of street art and the tools of the trade.
  2. Safety first: Suit up in your protective gear and learn the essential "dos and don'ts" of using spray cans responsibly.
  3. Master the nozzle: Start with basic techniques—learn how to control pressure, create thin lines, and fill in large areas.
  4. Sketch your soul: Grasp the chalk or markers to outline your design onto the wall or canvas under expert guidance.
  5. Colour theory: Choose your palette and learn how to blend colours and create those iconic graffiti gradients.
  6. The fill-in: Bring your piece to life by layering colours and building depth into your artwork.
  7. The sharp edge: Use "cutting" techniques to refine your outlines and make your piece pop against the background.
  8. Finishing touches: Add highlights, shadows, and your unique "tag" to claim your masterpiece.
  9. Group photo: Celebrate your hard work with a professional-style photoshoot in front of your finished street art!

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any previous drawing or painting experience?

Absolutely not! Our Cochabamba workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through everything from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced fading techniques. By the end of the session, you’ll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It’s all about having a go and enjoying the creative process in a relaxed, supportive environment. We provide all the guidance you need to feel like a pro.

Is the workshop safe, and what protective gear is provided?

We prioritize your safety above all else. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designated creative spaces in Cochabamba. Our instructors are experienced professionals who provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun and worry-free experience for everyone involved.

How long does a typical graffiti workshop session last?

Most of our standard public art workshops in Cochabamba last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a solid introduction, some practice drills, and the completion of your main project. If you are looking for a more intensive Masterclass or a specific brand activation event, we can certainly extend the duration to suit your schedule. Just let us know what you need!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls and gloves, spray paint can be unpredictable, and it's better to be safe than sorry! Since Cochabamba is known as the 'City of Eternal Spring', light layers are usually best for our outdoor sessions to keep you comfortable throughout the day.

Is there an age limit for participating in the street art experience?

We generally welcome participants of all ages! Our kids' parties and school programmes are very popular. However, for public workshops, we usually suggest a minimum age of 6 or 7 to ensure they have the physical strength to press the spray nozzles. Children should always be accompanied by an adult. It’s a fantastic multi-generational activity that brings families and friends together through shared creativity.

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

In the rare event of heavy rain, we have a couple of options. Many of our Cochabamba locations have covered areas where we can continue the fun. If that's not possible, we can look into rescheduling your session or pivoting to an indoor workshop using water-based, low-odour markers or alternative techniques. We always have backup plans and artists ready to ensure your creative experience isn't dampened by the weather.

Do I need to pay in advance to book my spot?

We believe in our service so much that we don't require any payment upfront. You only pay after the workshop has been completed. This 'Fun Guaranteed' approach ensures that our team is fully committed to giving you the best possible experience in Cochabamba. If your group is happy and you've had a blast, then we've done our job right! Request a quote today to start planning.
