Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join a workshop in Santiago?

Absolutely! Most of our participants in Santiago have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and circles before moving on to 'fills' and 'shadows'. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing yourself, regardless of your previous art experience.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing 'adventure clothes' that you don't mind getting a little messy. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, spray paint is famously stubborn if it finds its way onto your favourite designer trainers or expensive jeans. Santiago's weather is usually lovely, but we suggest comfortable shoes since you'll be on your feet moving around the mural. Think 'practical and ready to paint' for the best experience!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide professional-grade respiratory masks and gloves for all participants. The spray paint we use is high-quality and safe for general use in outdoor or well-ventilated areas. Our instructors start every session with a safety briefing to ensure everyone knows how to handle the equipment correctly. You get to enjoy the rebellious spirit of street art with all the safety of a professional setup.

What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

We understand that plans can change. One of the best things about booking with Graffitifun is our no-upfront-payment policy. We work on a basis of trust—you book your slot, and you pay after the workshop is finished. If you need to reschedule your Santiago session, just let us know as soon as possible, and we’ll do our best to find another time that works for your group.

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard public sessions usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, practice drills on the 'practice wall', and the final creation of your large-scale mural. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you have enough time to get into the flow without getting too tired. If you're looking for something more intensive, we can always customise the duration to suit your needs.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Yes! While we often work on large collective murals, we can also arrange for you to paint on individual canvases or boards that you can take home. In Santiago, many of our participants love having a physical piece of art to hang in their living room as a souvenir of their creative journey. Just let us know your preference when booking so we can bring the right materials.
