Do I need to have prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our Accra training sessions are designed to take you from 'spray paint novice' to 'confident instructor'. We focus on the fundamental mechanics of can control and safety first, before moving into more advanced artistic techniques. Even if you've never touched a can of paint in your life, our professional artists will guide you through every step of the process until you're ready to teach others.

Is spray painting safe to do with my students?

Safety is our top priority, especially in a school setting. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits for all participants. During the training, we specifically cover 'low-odour' paint options and proper ventilation techniques. You'll learn how to set up a safe workspace for students in Accra, ensuring that the creative process is always fun, controlled, and compliant with health and safety standards.

How long does the professional development session last?

Our standard teacher development sessions in Accra usually last between 2 to 4 hours. This provides enough time to cover the history of urban art, master the basic spraying techniques, and practice your own piece. However, we can also offer full-day intensive courses if you want to dive deeper into curriculum integration or large-scale mural planning. We are flexible and can work around your school's schedule.

Will I receive a certificate after completing the training?

Yes! Every teacher who completes our training receives a Graffitifun certificate of completion. This serves as a great addition to your professional portfolio and proves that you have been trained by professional urban artists in safe and effective teaching methods. It’s a fantastic way to show your commitment to modernising the art curriculum at your school or institution.

Where in Accra do the training sessions take place?

We bring the workshop to you! We can set up the training right on your school grounds in Accra, whether that's on a designated wall, a temporary wooden structure, or large cellophane 'walls' stretched between poles. If your facility isn't suitable, we also have access to various creative spaces and 'Halls of Fame' around the city where we can host the session. We're all about flexibility!

What materials do we need to provide?

We provide everything! Your booking includes premium spray paint in a rainbow of colours, various nozzle types (caps), protective clothing, masks, and practice surfaces. We even bring design templates and inspiration materials. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little bit of dust on. We take care of all the logistics so you can focus on learning.

Can I use these skills for different age groups?

Our training is highly versatile. While perfectly suited for secondary school art teachers, the techniques can be adapted for primary school engagement (using water-based markers or stencils) and youth community projects. We teach you how to scale the difficulty and safety measures based on the age group you are working with, making it a valuable skill set for any educator in Ghana.

Local culture

Accra is a city that pulses with visual energy, from the vibrant textiles at Makola Market to the burgeoning street art scene in James Town. Our training taps into this local spirit, encouraging teachers to blend traditional Ghanaian motifs with modern graffiti techniques. We often draw inspiration from the murals seen during the Chale Wote Street Art Festival, showing you how to turn the city's walls into a living classroom.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Accra's street art scene is one of the most rapidly growing in West Africa? Many local artists use graffiti to tell stories of social change and cultural identity, making it the perfect medium for educational storytelling! 🎨
