Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely not! Our Limerick teacher training is designed for all skill levels. We start with the absolute basics—how to hold a can and move your arm—before moving into more complex techniques. Many of the best art teachers we've worked with started with zero spray-paint experience. We provide a supportive, judgment-free environment where you can experiment, make mistakes, and find your own style alongside your colleagues.

Is the training safe and what protective gear is provided?

We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality respirators, gloves, and protective suits to all participants. Our professional artists also lead a comprehensive safety briefing at the start of the session, covering proper ventilation, can handling, and site management. You’ll leave the workshop not just with artistic skills, but with a robust safety checklist you can implement in your own classroom or youth centre.

How long does the professional development session last?

The workshop typically lasts between 2.5 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for a solid theoretical foundation, hands-on practice with various nozzles, and the completion of a final collaborative or individual piece. We find this timeframe is the 'sweet spot' for maintaining high energy while ensuring everyone has enough time to feel confident with the medium before the session wraps up.

Will I receive a certificate or accreditation after the workshop?

Yes, every participant receives a Graffitifun certificate of completion! In Ireland, many teachers use this as evidence of Professional Development (CPD) hours. It’s a great way to show your commitment to broadening your pedagogical toolkit and bringing contemporary, urban art forms into the formal education system. It’s a fantastic addition to any teaching portfolio or CV.

What is the minimum or maximum group size for a booking?

We generally recommend a minimum group size of 5 to 10 educators to keep the energy high and the costs effective. However, we are very flexible and can cater to entire school departments or large regional teacher associations. Because we have a deep bench of backup artists, we can scale the event up to accommodate dozens of teachers at once without losing the personal touch.

Can you host the training at our school or facility in Limerick?

Definitely! While we can host you at specific locations, we love coming to Limerick schools or community hubs. If you have a suitable outdoor wall or a well-ventilated indoor space with protection, we can bring the entire 'street art lab' to you. This is often a great way for teachers to assess their own school’s potential for future student-led mural projects.

How does the payment process work? Do I pay upfront?

Unlike many other providers, we don't require any payment at the time of booking. You can secure your date and focus on the excitement of the upcoming training. Payment is only settled after the workshop is completed and you're 100% happy with the experience. This 'fun guaranteed' approach ensures that your department's budget is always protected and well-spent.

Local culture

Limerick has an incredible relationship with street art, most famously celebrated through the Draw Out urban art initiative. From the stunning murals near Wickham Street to the hidden gems in the city's alleyways, Art is part of the Treaty City's DNA. Our training draws inspiration from this local 'open-air gallery' culture, helping you see the city walls as a canvas for community storytelling.

Fun Fact: Did you know Limerick is home to some of the tallest murals in Ireland? The city's urban landscape provides the perfect backdrop for educators to explore how large-scale art can revitalise urban spaces and boost civic pride! 🎨
