Do I need prior experience with spray paint to join?

Absolutely not! Our Art Teacher Training in Lucerne is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a seasoned painter or have never touched a spray can, our professional artists guide you through the basics of can control, nozzle types, and safety. The focus is on pedagogical application—learning how to teach these techniques to your students in a structured, safe, and engaging way.

What safety measures are taught for classroom use?

We take safety very seriously. During the session, we provide all necessary professional-grade protective gear, including FFP3 masks, gloves, and overalls. We also train you on how to set up a safe outdoor or well-ventilated workspace for your students. We use high-quality paints with lower VOC levels where possible and teach you the 'best practice' protocols for managing a classroom of budding street artists.

Will I receive any curriculum materials or resources?

Yes, every participant receives a comprehensive digital handbook and a physical toolkit guide. These resources include lesson plans, material checklists, budget templates, and technical 'cheat sheets' for graffiti styles. We also offer access to our online Tag Creator tool, which you can use in your classroom to help students design their first sketches before they ever pick up a can.

Is there a minimum group size for teacher training?

While we recommend a minimum of 5 participants to keep the energy high and the cost per person lower, we can accommodate smaller groups or even individual one-on-one professional development sessions. For larger school departments or district-wide training, we have a deep bench of backup artists to ensure the training goes ahead smoothly regardless of the group size. Just ask for a custom quote!

Can I use this workshop for official PD credits?

Definitely! We provide a certificate of completion that details the hours spent and the specific skills mastered. Many teachers in the Lucerne region use this as evidence for their official professional development (PD) requirements. It’s a unique credential that sets your art department apart and demonstrates your commitment to contemporary, relevant art education that resonates with modern students.

Is graffiti art suitable for all student age groups?

Generally, we recommend graffiti for students aged 10 and up due to the physical coordination required for the spray cans. However, during the teacher training, we also discuss 'street art' alternatives for younger years, such as stencil work with water-based markers or 'chalk graffiti'. We help you tailor the curriculum so it is age-appropriate and engaging for your specific student demographic.

The experience

Why choose graffiti for your next professional development day in Lucerne? Because it’s the most effective way to engage students who might otherwise feel disconnected from traditional art forms. Here’s why our training stands out:

Instant Student Engagement: Learn the medium that your students are already obsessed with—turn 'vandalism' into a valuable skill. 🎤
Safety Masters: We teach you the strict Swiss-standard safety protocols so you can run your own workshops without stress.
Hands-on Experience: No boring PowerPoints here! You'll be spraying paint within the first 20 minutes of the session. 🔥
Resource Heavy: You leave with lesson plans, material lists, and a digital toolkit to implement your curriculum immediately.
Boost School Morale: It’s a fantastic team-building activity for the art department—get messy and creative together!
Flexible Delivery: We can host you at our Lucerne spots or bring the 'mobile studio' directly to your school gym or courtyard.

Step by step

Intro & Street Art History: We start with a brief overview of graffiti culture and how it evolved into a global art movement, giving you the context to share with your students.
Material Science: Learn the difference between caps (nozzles), paint brands, and surfaces. Knowing your gear is half the battle in a classroom setting!
Safety First: Master the setup of a safe working environment, including mask fitting and ventilation protocols essential for school grounds.
First Lines & Can Control: Get hands-on with the cans. Our pros teach you how to handle pressure, distance, and angle to achieve clean lines.
Style Development: Practice 'Throw-ups', 'Tags', and 'Piece' building. You'll learn the step-by-step logic of building a graffiti work from sketch to highlight.
Teaching Methodology: We dive into how to manage 20+ students with cans, how to prevent 'random' spraying, and how to encourage collaborative murals.
The Big Mural: Put your skills to the test by creating a large-scale collaborative piece on a professional wall or canvas.
Cleanup & Storage: Practical tips on how to store cans safely in a school environment and how to handle waste responsibly.
Feedback & Certification: A wrap-up session where we review your work and provide your professional development certificate.

Local culture

Lucerne might be famous for the Chapel Bridge and its medieval charm, but there is a pulsing underground art scene waiting to be explored. From the vibrant murals near the Neubad cultural centre to the hidden gems tucked away in the industrial zones, Lucerne provides a stunning backdrop for creative rebellion. We love bringing our art teacher training to this city because the juxtaposition of classic Swiss architecture and modern street art is simply inspiring. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know that Lucerne's "Neubad" is a former public swimming pool turned into a creative hub? It's a prime example of urban repurposing that we often use as an example in our stencil and mural discussions! ✨
