Do I need to be an art teacher to join the training?

Absolutely! This professional development isn't just for art teachers. We welcome classroom teachers, school leaders, and community coordinators in Adelaide who want to integrate street art into their curriculum or youth programs. No prior painting experience is required; we teach you the foundational techniques from scratch so you can confidently guide your own students later on.

Is use of spray paint safe for school environments?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary PPE, including high-quality respirators and gloves. During the workshop, we cover best practices for ventilation, paint storage, and student supervision. You'll leave the session with a comprehensive understanding of how to run a graffiti workshop in Adelaide schools while keeping your students 100% safe.

How long does the training session last?

Our teacher training sessions in Adelaide typically run for about 2.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the movement, master several spray techniques, and complete a collaborative mural. It's the perfect length for a professional development morning or afternoon session that remains high-energy and productive without being exhausting.

Does the training include curriculum-aligned resources?

Definitely! One of the core components of our Adelaide training is aligning street art with the Australian Curriculum. We discuss how graffiti relates to visual arts, social history, and community identity. We provide you with the vocabulary and conceptual frameworks needed to justify and explain these lessons to your school board or parents.

Can you bring the training directly to our school?

We are very flexible with locations! We can host the training at one of our partner locations in Adelaide, or we can come directly to your school if you have a suitable outdoor wall or undercover area. If your school doesn't have a permanent wall, we can use large mobile boards or heavy-duty plastic sheeting to create a temporary practice space.

What materials are provided in the workshop?

Everything is included in the cost. We provide professional-grade spray cans in a huge range of colours, caps (nozzles), protective gear, and practice surfaces. We also provide digital resources after the session, such as safety checklists and lesson plan templates, so you have everything you need to start teaching street art in Adelaide immediately.
