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 materialsโspray 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 wonโt 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.

That's why Kikihub is here to bring you local information and anonymous insights, helping you uncover the lesser-known facets of this bustling city center.
Local Insider Tips
For the freshest local information, our anonymous insights on Kikihub highlight hidden gems that even some Miami natives might not know. Have you heard of the elusive pop-up markets set up around Bayfront Park during the weekends? These markets offer unique, handmade crafts and locally sourced foods that are a must-see.
Another spot that often flies under the tourist radar is the Miami-Dade Public Library System's main branch. While it might sound mundane, the library hosts various free events, from poetry readings to art exhibitions, creating a haven for book lovers and culture enthusiasts.

Our community thrives on trending discussions that bring out honest reviews and personal recommendations. Want to know where locals actually dine instead of the overrated tourist traps? Join the conversation to get pro tips for hidden culinary spots such as "El Pub," a family-owned Cuban restaurant that offers mouth-watering, authentic dishes at reasonable prices.

Travel Made Easy with Local Recommendations
Navigating Downtown Miami can be a hassle without proper local insights.
