Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Not at all! Our Hobart teacher training is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a fine arts maestro or someone who has never touched a spray can, we teach you the fundamentals from the ground up. The focus is on the pedagogy of street art—how to demonstrate techniques safely and effectively to your students—rather than your personal artistic portfolio. We’ll have you feeling like a pro in no time!

What safety protocols are covered during the session?

Safety is our number one priority. We cover everything from the proper use of high-quality respirators and gloves to managing ventilation in outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. You will learn how to set up a 'safe zone' for students, how to manage can pressure, and how to dispose of materials responsibly. We ensure you leave the session feeling confident that you can run a risk-free workshop back at your Hobart school.

Will you help me figure out what supplies to buy for my classroom?

One of the biggest hurdles for teachers is the cost of supplies. During the training, we provide a comprehensive list of essential gear, including the best types of nozzles (caps), paint brands that offer the best value, and eco-friendly alternatives. We also share 'insider' tips on Hobart-specific suppliers and how to stretch a small department budget to cover a full class of eager street artists.

Do I get a certificate or accreditation after the workshop?

Absolutely! This isn't just a fun day out; it's professional development. We provide a certificate of completion that outlines the hours spent and the specific skills acquired, such as aerosol techniques, stencil making, and history of street art. Many Tasmanian teachers use this to count towards their elective PD hours. It’s a great way to show your commitment to contemporary, engaging curriculum delivery.

How can I integrate these skills into the Australian Curriculum?

The skills you learn are incredibly versatile. You can apply them to Year 7-10 Visual Arts units, VET Creative Industries courses, or even lunchtime wellbeing programs. We discuss how to link street art to themes of identity, social justice, and community. Plus, you’ll learn how to help students transition from sketching in their workbooks to scaling up their designs for large-scale mural projects on school grounds.

Where do the Hobart teacher training sessions take place?

We know how busy school schedules are, so we come to you! Whether you want to host the training at your own school in Glenorchy or meet us at a vibrant outdoor spot near the Hobart waterfront, we are fully mobile. We bring all the gear, including drop sheets and boards, so there’s zero mess and zero stress for you. Just show up in your 'painting clothes' and get ready to spray!

Step by step

Intro to aerosol theory: We kick off with the basics of can control, explaining the science of pressure, valves, and the different types of caps (nozzles) used for various effects.
Safety briefing: Learn the essential health and safety protocols, including correct PPE usage and how to set up a safe workspace for students in a school environment.
Basic techniques: Get hands-on with lines, dots, and fades. You'll practice 'cutting' (outlining) and filling in shapes to understand the physical coordination required.
Lettering and styles: Move from simple 'tag' styles to 'throw-ups' and 'pieces', learning how to teach students the anatomy of a letter and how to build 3D effects.
Stencil making: We dive into the world of stencils—a great way to help less confident students achieve crisp, professional-looking results quickly.
Curriculum integration: A dedicated session on how to map these skills to the Australian Curriculum, focusing on contemporary art history and social themes.
Group mural project: Work together on a collaborative piece to experience the dynamics of managing a large-scale project with multiple contributors.
Cleanup and maintenance: Learn how to properly clean caps, store cans to prevent clogging, and manage waste sustainably.
