Do I need to be an expert artist to join this training?

No previous spray painting experience is required at all. Our Mexico City trainers specialize in taking traditional educators and showing them how to translate their existing pedagogical skills into the world of street art. We start with the absolute basics of can control and safety before moving into complex mural design. You will leave the session feeling confident to lead your own class of beginners.

What safety protocols do you teach for the classroom?

Safety is our number one priority. During the training, we cover everything from proper mask usage and ventilation to managing a large group of students with spray cans. We provide high quality FFP masks and gloves, and we teach you how to set up a safe outdoor or well ventilated workspace that meets school or community centre safety standards in Mexico.

Will I receive any teaching materials or curriculum guides?

Absolutely. We provide you with a comprehensive toolkit that includes lesson plans, supply lists, and technique cheat sheets. Our goal is to make sure you can replicate the workshop experience for your own students immediately. We also offer ongoing support if you have questions about specific projects or need advice on where to source the best local mural supplies.

How long does the teacher training session last?

A standard professional development session usually lasts between 2 and 4 hours. However, we are very flexible. If you want a deep dive over a full day or a shorter introductory session during a staff meeting, we can customise the duration to fit your schedule. We work around your availability to ensure your team gets the most out of the experience.

Can you come to our school or do we travel to you?

We can host the training at one of our vibrant partner street art spots in Mexico City, or we can come directly to your school or office. If you have a suitable outdoor wall or a well ventilated courtyard, we bring all the equipment to you. This is often the best way for teachers to learn how to manage the activity in their own environment.

Are all the materials included in the training cost?

Yes, we provide all the necessary gear including premium low pressure spray cans, caps, protective suits, gloves, and masks. You do not need to bring anything except your enthusiasm and some clothes you do not mind getting a bit of paint on. We handle the entire setup and the cleanup afterwards so you can focus entirely on learning.

Does the training cover the difference between graffiti and vandalism?

We focus on the artistic and technical side of graffiti, but we also include a module on the history and ethics of street art. We teach you how to help students distinguish between illegal vandalism and constructive, community based mural art. This helps schools embrace the medium as a positive outlet for student expression rather than a disciplinary issue.

Local culture

Mexico City is a living gallery. From the historic murals of Diego Rivera to the neon bright "rótulos" on every street corner, the city breathes visual creativity. In neighbourhoods like Roma, Condesa, and the gritty but artistic Doctores, street art is a vital part of the urban fabric. Our training sessions tap into this local energy, often taking place near legendary spots like the Museo del Juguete Antiguo Méxicano or dedicated street art corridors.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Mexico City is home to some of the largest legal graffiti walls in Latin America? The city government even supports "Street Art Museums" that are entirely outdoors, proving that graffiti is a respected and celebrated form of high art in CDMX. 🎨
