Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely! While having some artistic Spark helps, our training is designed to teach you the technical side of aerosol art from scratch. We focus on how to break down complex mural techniques into teachable steps for your students. You'll leave with the confidence to lead a class, regardless of whether you've ever picked up a spray can before today. It's all about the process!

What safety measures are covered for classroom environments?

We take safety very seriously. All participants are provided with high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective clothing. We also provide a comprehensive safety curriculum that you can take back to your school or studio, covering ventilation, skin protection, and the proper handling of pressurized cans. You'll learn how to keep your classroom environment both creative and completely safe for young artists.

Are materials included, or do I need to bring my own?

All professional materials are included in the price. We provide premium low-pressure spray paint (easier for beginners to control), various nozzles (caps) for different effects, protective gear, and practice surfaces. We also provide digital resources and a physical handbook that you can keep for future lesson planning. In Cartagena, we often use locally sourced eco-friendly materials where possible to align with community values.

How long does the professional development session last?

Our standard Art Teacher Training workshops in Cartagena typically last between 3 to 4 hours. This allows enough time for the theoretical background, technical practice, and a collaborative mural session. If you are looking for a more intensive multi-day certification, we can certainly arrange that! Most educators find the half-day intensive perfect for gaining immediate, actionable skills to use in their next term.

Will I receive a certificate after completing the training?

Yes, we do! Upon successful completion of the workshop, you will receive a Graffitifun Certificate of Participation. This documents your professional development hours and confirms you've been trained in spray paint safety, basic techniques, and street art history. It's a fantastic addition to your teaching portfolio and is recognised by many educational institutions as valid creative professional development.

What is your cancellation and booking policy?

We understand that school schedules change. Unlike many providers, we don't require upfront payment; you pay after the workshop is complete. If you need to reschedule your session in Cartagena, just let us know at least 48 hours in advance, and we will move your booking to a new date at no extra cost. We also have backup artists ready to ensure your training always goes ahead.

Local culture

Cartagena is a living gallery. From the iconic murals of Getsemaní to the hidden gems in the walled city, street art is woven into the very fabric of the community. Our training sessions tap into this local spirit, often featuring guest insights from local coastal artists who have transformed the city's visual landscape. We don't just paint on walls; we tell the stories of the Caribbean coast through vibrant colours and bold strokes. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that the "Palenqueras" (the famous fruit sellers) are one of the most common themes in Cartagena street art? You'll learn how to interpret these local icons through urban techniques! 🍍
