Who is this teacher training session for?

This training is designed for primary and secondary school teachers, youth workers, and freelance art educators. You don't need to be a professional street artist to join! We focus on giving you the pedagogical tools to teach graffiti safely and effectively, meaning anyone with a passion for creative education and a desire to bring something fresh to the classroom will find immense value in our Potosi sessions.

Is graffiti actually safe to teach in a school environment?

Absolutely! One of the core modules in our Potosi training covers the chemical composition of paints, the importance of high-quality respirators, and how to set up a safe outdoor 'classroom' space. We ensure you feel 100% confident managing a group of students with spray cans, focusing on ventilation, skin protection, and responsible artistic expression within the local community guidelines.

How long does the training session last?

Most of our professional development workshops in Potosi last between 3 to 5 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, master the technical 'can control' skills, and discuss how to integrate these lessons into your existing curriculum. We can also offer extended full-day intensives if your school or department wants a deeper dive into mural production.

Do I need to bring my own spray paint and equipment?

We provide everything! Your session includes professional-grade spray cans, various nozzles (caps), protective coveralls, gloves, and high-quality masks. We also provide the canvases or practice walls and all the teaching hand-outs you’ll need to take back to your classroom. You just need to wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on!

What is your payment policy for educational workshops?

We don't believe in making you pay before you've experienced our quality. You can book your Potosi teacher training today and settle the payment after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the skills and inspiration you've gained before any money changes hands. It’s all part of our commitment to professional, stress-free service.

How will this help me with my daily lesson planning?

Street art is a fantastic hook for teaching more than just art. We show you how to link graffiti to history, social justice, geometry (scaling up designs), and even chemistry. After the workshop, you'll have a toolkit of ideas to make your lessons more engaging, helping you connect with students who might otherwise struggle with traditional fine art methods.

Local culture

Potosi is a city defined by its incredible history and its rugged, high-altitude spirit. While the city is world-famous for its colonial architecture and the Cerro Rico, there is a growing contemporary pulse in its streets. Our training draws inspiration from the local 'muralista' traditions of Bolivia, blending traditional Andean motifs with modern urban techniques. We celebrate the local culture by showing you how to incorporate Potosi’s unique visual identity into your students' projects. ✨

Fun Fact: At over 4,000 metres above sea level, spray paint behaves slightly differently due to the air pressure! Our expert artists will show you the tricks to managing your 'can control' in the thin Andean air—a skill you won't learn anywhere else in the world. 🏔️

Pricing

We know school and departmental budgets vary, which is why we offer flexible packages tailored to your needs. Whether it's a one-on-one intensive or a full staff development day, we provide premium value with no upfront costs. 💸
