Wynwood Graffiti Golf Cart Tour + Graffiti Painting Experience Have you ever felt the draw of graffiti? Are you inspired by the gorgeous street art murals in Wynwood? Then sign up for our Wynwood Graffiti Experience and see if you have a future in street art! We will not be defacing any property or do anything illegal. Classes include all materials—spray paint, gloves, apron, and mask. When you arrive at the Wynwood Graffiti Experience, we will be set up for your lesson in our parking lot in front of the Wynwood Art Walk store. We paint on large canvas stretched onto wooden panels. First, we start with the very basics: how to hold, angle and handle the spray can and manipulate the pressure and length of the spray to paint dots of different sizes, lines of different widths, and to write letters. Then we move on to some more complex skills, like creating a drop shadow, making backgrounds and patterns, or even doing a color gradient. Masks and gloves will be on hand for personal protection. Although we rarely have issues with ruining clothes, and guests will be given aprons, it is best to come in something comfortable that you won’t mind having a few paint dots on. After learning a variety of skills, you will have time to experiment on your own and compose an artwork of your design. Our facilitator will be there to give guidance and tips, and to answer questions while working alongside you.

You planned your workout on a Saturday morning, so you can stop by El Bagel after. The earlier you pass by the gym, the better, for El Bagel. They open at 8 AM and close at 2 PM, however, they often sell out of bagels! You can pre-order for pick-up to avoid waiting in line. You’re either taking the bagels home or if the weather permits, eating them on the outdoor deck (they have seating in the front and also in the back). If you want to keep it simple, go for their salt bagel with scallion cream cheese (vegan option available). Other amazing sandwich orders include the Lox Supreme with locally-smoked lox, English cucumber, dill, pickled onion, tomato, capers, and cream cheese; and the open-face Midday Snack with chives, red onion, and Lox cream cheese. Make sure to add smoked trout roe as an upgrade. Sometimes they have bagel specials, like the Garlique, which sounds divine. El Bagel is also a great spot to pick up before heading to work or for pick up before heading back to bed. They are open 8 AM – 2 PM every day except Tuesday.
