Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely not! Our La Serena workshops are specifically designed for beginners of all ages. Our professional artists will guide you through every stage, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering complex shading techniques. Most of our participants have never touched a spray can before they arrive, and they always leave with a piece of art they are proud to show off.

What safety gear do you provide during the workshop?

We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our spray paints are selected for their safety standards, and we always work in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before any paint is sprayed, ensuring a secure and fun environment for everyone involved in the session.

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on. While we provide protective overalls, graffiti can be a messy business, and paint has a way of finding its way onto sleeves or shoelaces! Since La Serena can be sunny, bringing some sunblock and a hat is also a great idea for our outdoor sessions.

What happens if it rains on the day?

In the rare event of heavy rain in La Serena, we have several options. We can move the workshop to a covered outdoor location or an indoor studio space using water-based, low-odour paints. Alternatively, we can reschedule your workshop to a different date at no extra cost. We always have backup plans in place to ensure your creative experience isn't dampened by the weather.

How long does the workshop last?

Standard public art workshops in La Serena typically last between 2 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive experience, we can arrange extended sessions or multi-day mural projects upon request.

How much does a graffiti workshop cost?

Standard pricing in La Serena ranges from $20,000 to $45,000 CLP per person. The final cost depends on the size of your group, the location, and the specific materials required for your project. We offer competitive rates for schools and large community groups. Since every event is unique, we recommend requesting a custom quote to get the most accurate pricing for your specific needs.
