Do I need previous graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely! While we focus on teachers, our training is designed for all skill levels. We start with the basics of spray can control, nozzle choice, and safety before moving into complex pieces. You’ll leave with the confidence to lead a class, regardless of your previous experience with a spray can. Our expert artists guide you every step of the way to ensure you feel like a pro.

What safety gear is provided and how do you handle fumes?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respirators, gloves, and protective suits to all participants. During the pedagogical portion of the training, we teach you how to set up a safe workspace for students, including ventilation requirements and proper storage. We ensure you are fully equipped to manage a classroom environment that is both creatively daring and physically safe for everyone involved.

How long does the training session last?

Our standard art teacher development sessions in Ambato typically run between 2 and 4 hours. This allows enough time for the practical 'skills' session and the 'curriculum' discussion. However, we can also offer full-day intensives or multi-day retreats if your school or department wants a deeper dive into urban art history and advanced mural techniques. Just let us know your schedule!

Can you host the workshop at our school or do we come to you?

We are incredibly flexible! We can come to your school or community centre if you have a suitable outdoor wall or a well-ventilated indoor space. Alternatively, we can host your group at one of our partner locations or local 'halls of fame' in Ambato. We bring all the blankets, cans, and gear to you, making it a completely hassle-free experience for your staff.

Will I receive a certificate or accreditation after the workshop?

Yes, every participant receives a digital Graffitifun certificate of completion. This confirms you have undergone professional development in street art pedagogy and safety. It’s a great addition to your teaching portfolio and proves to your school board or OFSTED-equivalent body that you are committed to modernising your curriculum with engaging, contemporary art forms.

What is your payment and cancellation policy?

We understand that school budgets and staff schedules can change. That is why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy. You don't need to put down a deposit to secure your date. We believe in our service so much that we want you to be 100% satisfied before the invoice is settled. It makes the booking process stress-free for departments.

Do you provide resources for me to use in my own classroom?

Most definitely. We don't just teach you how to paint; we show you how to teach it. We provide digital resources, lesson plan templates, and advice on where to source affordable materials for your students. We also discuss how to link graffiti to larger art movements like Pop Art or Abstract Expressionism, helping you integrate it seamlessly into your existing art curriculum.

The experience

Why choose Graffitifun to level up your teaching skills? Because we bridge the gap between "fine art" and the "real world." Here is why educators in Ambato love our training:

Boost student engagement: Nothing gets a classroom excited like the prospect of painting a wall. We show you how to harness that energy productively. 🚀
Professional expertise: Learn from real-world street artists who understand the history, ethics, and techniques of the subculture.
Stress-free booking: With no upfront payments and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, your school's budget is in safe hands.
Practical toolkit: You leave with more than just a painting; you get lesson plans, safety protocols, and supply lists. 💪
Team bonding: It’s the ultimate "out-of-the-box" professional development day that brings your staff closer together through shared creativity.
Curriculum modernisation: Stay relevant by incorporating contemporary urban art movements into your existing syllabus. 🎤

Step by step

Initial consultation: Reach out via our request form. We’ll chat about your current art curriculum and what specific skills you want your teaching staff to master.
Concept & planning: We design a bespoke training day that balances hands-on painting with pedagogical theory, tailored specifically for the Ambato education sector.
Surface prep: Whether at your school or our local site, we prepare the 'canvas'—usually a large wall or mobile boards—ensuring everything is ready for your arrival.
The briefing: We start with a bang! An introduction to the culture of street art, followed by an essential safety and equipment briefing.
Skills session: You’ll get hands-on with the cans. Learn 'can control', flares, cutting, and filling under the guidance of our master artists.
Teaching methodology: We transition into the 'how-to-teach' phase, sharing secrets on managing a group of students with spray cans without losing control.
Collaborative mural: The team works together to create a large-scale piece, putting all the newly learned techniques into practice in a real-world scenario.
Review & resources: We wrap up with a Q&A and provide you with digital assets and lesson plans to take back to your classroom.
Payment: Once the session is over and you're buzzing with inspiration, we handle the admin. No upfront costs required!

Local culture

Ambato, nestled in the heart of the Ecuadorian Andes, is a city famous for its resilience and vibrant culture. Known as the "Cuna de los Tres Juanes," it has an intellectual spirit that perfectly complements the rebellious nature of street art. During the famous Fiesta de la Fruta y de la Flores, the city explodes with colour—a spirit we aim to capture in every workshop. While Quito might have the big murals, Ambato has a growing, tight-knit street art scene hidden in its hills and valleys.

Fun Fact: Ambato was almost entirely rebuilt after a major earthquake in 1949. This "reconstruction" spirit is exactly what we bring to art education—tearing down old barriers and building something vibrant and modern in their place! 🏆

Pricing

Our training packages are bespoke because every school has different needs. Whether you need a one-off session for three teachers or a multi-day course for a whole district, we offer competitive rates with total transparency.
