Do I need prior experience with spray paint to join the training?

Absolutely not! This training is designed for educators of all artistic levels. Whether you are a seasoned fine arts teacher or a primary school educator who usually sticks to crayons, our professional artists will guide you through the basics of spray canopy control and lettering. By the end of the session, you'll have the confidence to demonstrate these techniques to your pupils yourself.

How do you handle safety and health concerns during the workshop?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for all participants. During the training, we also cover important safety protocols for the classroom, such as proper ventilation, choosing low-odour paints, and managing a group of students safely in an outdoor or well-ventilated indoor environment. You’ll leave feeling fully prepared to manage these risks.

Will I learn about the equipment and costs involved for school projects?

We understand that school budgets can be tight. During the professional development session, we provide a comprehensive list of recommended supplies, including budget-friendly paint brands and reusable caps. We also teach you how to make the most of your materials to reduce waste, ensuring you can run your own school graffiti projects without breaking the bank.

How long does the teacher training session usually last?

The training typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for covering the history of street art, mastering the basic technical skills, and completing a collaborative mural. It’s an intensive but highly rewarding session that fits perfectly into a standard professional development afternoon or a 'pedagogical day' schedule.

How can I apply these skills in a standard school curriculum?

The skills you learn are incredibly versatile. We’ve seen teachers integrate graffiti into history lessons (studying social movements), geometry (calculating scale and proportions for murals), and even literature (visualising poetry through street art). It’s a fantastic way to engage 'at-risk' students or those who feel disconnected from traditional academic subjects. It builds teamwork, pride, and a sense of ownership over the school environment.

Can the training be held at our own school premises?

We are incredibly flexible and can come to your school in Mons or a nearby location. If your school has a suitable outdoor wall (with permission!) or a well-ventilated indoor space, we can work there. Alternatively, we can arrange for the training to take place at a local legal graffiti zone so you can experience the authentic street art atmosphere.

What are the payment terms for the training?

No upfront payment is required when you book your session! We believe in the quality of our training and want you to feel completely confident in your choice. You simply pay after the workshop is completed. This makes the administrative process much easier for schools and educational institutions handling official purchase orders or departmental budgets.

Local culture

Mons is far more than just a historic city with a stunning Grand Place; it’s a living gallery! Ever since its stint as the European Capital of Culture, the street art scene here has exploded. From the massive murals near the Mons railway station to the hidden gems tucked away in the medieval alleys, the city provides the perfect backdrop for inspiration. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Mons is home to the 'L'Art habite la Ville' project? Over 50 urban artworks are scattered across the city, making it one of the most street-art-friendly locations in Belgium!

When you join us for a workshop here, you aren't just learning a craft; you're connecting with the local soul of Doudou territory. We love bringing this urban energy to teachers in Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, and Charleroi too!

We believe in total transparency and flexibility, which is why we don't require any upfront payment. You only pay after you've experienced the workshop! 💸
