Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Our teacher training workshops in Nyeri are open to educators from all backgrounds! Whether you are a dedicated fine arts teacher looking to modernise your curriculum or a primary school teacher wanting to bring more colour to your classroom, you are welcome. No prior experience with spray paint is required; we start with the basics of can control and safety before moving into complex mural design.

Is spray painting safe to do in a school setting?

Absolutely. Safety is our number one priority at Graffitifun. We use high-quality, low-odour professional spray paints and provide all necessary protective gear, including masks and gloves. Part of the training specifically covers how to set up a safe 'graffiti zone' in a school environment, ensuring you can replicate the experience for your students without any health or safety risks.

How long does a typical professional development session last?

Most of our professional development sessions in Nyeri last between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the depth of the curriculum you choose. We offer intensive half-day workshops that cover the history, the 'can-control' basics, and a collaborative mural project. This timeframe ensures you get plenty of hands-on practice while still fitting into a busy academic schedule.

What materials are included in the teacher training package?

We provide everything you need! This includes a wide array of premium spray cans, various nozzle types (caps) for different effects, protective clothing, masks, and practice surfaces. We also provide digital resources and lesson plan templates that you can take back to your school to help you integrate street art into your local Nyeri curriculum.

Are there discounts available for large groups of teachers?

Yes, we do! For schools or educational clusters in Nyeri looking to train multiple staff members at once, we offer attractive group rates. Since our mission is to spread the joy of street art throughout Kenya, we try to make these sessions as accessible as possible. Just use our cost calculator or request a quote for a custom price based on your team size.

How can I convince my school board to support a graffiti programme?

One of the biggest hurdles for schools is the fear of 'vandalism'. Our training teaches you how to channel that creative energy into 'legal walls' and community projects. We show you how to frame graffiti as a disciplined art form involving typography, colour theory, and scale, which helps shift the school's perception from mess-making to masterpiece-building. Parchment and digital certificates are also provided upon completion!

Mural planning: Learn how to scale a small sketch up to a massive wall using the 'grid' or 'doodle' method.
The collaborative piece: Work together with fellow Nyeri educators to create a stunning, large-scale mural.

Local culture

Nyeri is a city brimming with history and natural beauty, but it's also a rising hub for contemporary Kenyan culture. While Nairobi often grabs the headlines, the artistic spirit in Nyeri is undeniable—from traditional crafts to the vibrant 'Matatu culture' that passes through town. Our workshops celebrate this local energy, encouraging teachers to blend traditional Kenyan motifs with modern street art styles. 🇰🇪

Fun Fact: Did you know that Nyeri was home to Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai? We often encourage our trainee teachers to think about 'Artivism'—using street art to promote environmental and social messages, much like her Green Belt Movement! ✨

Pricing

We believe every educator should have the chance to master the spray can! Because every school's needs are different, our pricing is tailored to your specific requirements. Factors like group size, duration, and whether we provide the wall or come to you will influence the final cost. 💸
