Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely not! Our workshops are designed for educators of all skill levels. Whether you are a fine arts specialist or a primary school teacher with no previous painting experience, our professional artists will guide you through the basics of spray painting, can control, and stencil work. You will leave the training feeling confident and ready to demonstrate these techniques to your students.

What happens if the artist is sick or can't make it?

We pride ourselves on our 'Plan B' guarantee. Graffitifun works with a large network of local Bogota artists, meaning if your assigned instructor is unable to make it due to an emergency, we have backup professional artists ready to step in. This ensures your professional development day goes ahead as planned without any stressful last-minute cancellations or rescheduling.

How long does the professional development session last?

Our standard teacher training sessions usually last between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for a bit of theory, safety briefings, hands-on practice, and the creation of a final piece. We can also customise the duration if you have a specific staff development slot to fill or if you want to combine it with a larger curriculum planning session.

Is the graffiti training safe for teachers and schools?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overalls to ensure everyone stays clean and safe. We also discuss the importance of ventilation and choosing the right environment for school projects. Our products are selected to be as safe as possible for educational settings, and our artists are trained in rigorous safety protocols.

How does the payment process work?

We make it easy for schools and educational institutions. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book. We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you only pay after the training has been completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This takes the financial risk out of planning your professional development budget.

Can you hold the training on-site at our school?

Yes, we can! While we have fantastic spots across Bogota, we are happy to bring the workshop to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated area. This is often a great way for teachers to see how a graffiti project might actually work within their own school environment and logistical constraints.

Local culture

Bogota isn't just a city; it's a living, breathing gallery. From the iconic murals of La Candelaria up to the sprawling legal walls of the Avenida Caracas, the city's street art scene is a core part of its modern identity. When you take part in our training here, you are tapping into a local culture that uses art for social commentary, storytelling, and community building. We weave this local context into our training, helping you understand the "Bogota style" and how the local government supports urban art initiatives. It's more than just painting; it's about connecting your students to the visual language of their own streets.

Pricing

Our professional development sessions are priced competitively to suit school budgets. Prices typically range from $100000 to $250000 COP per person. The final price depends on the size of your group, the chosen location, and any specific materials required for your custom curriculum. Remember, you don't have to pay a penny until the training is finished! Request a custom quote today to get a detailed breakdown for your team.
