I have never used spray paint before; can I still join the training?

Absolutely! Our art teacher training in Santa Cruz is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a fine arts veteran or have never touched a spray can, our professional artists will guide you through the basics of can control, safety, and letter structure. We focus on teaching you the methodology so you can confidently pass these skills on to your students, regardless of your personal starting point.

What safety measures are covered during the professional development?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for all participants. During the session, we cover essential safety protocols for the classroom, including proper ventilation, storage of materials, and how to manage a group of students in an outdoor or well-ventilated setting. You'll leave feeling confident about managing these logistics back at your own school.

How long does the teacher training session last?

A standard professional development session in Santa Cruz typically lasts between 2.5 and 4 hours. This allows enough time for a deep dive into the history of street art, hands-on practice with various nozzles (caps), and the completion of a collaborative mural. We can also customise the duration if you have specific scheduling needs for your school's inset day.

Do I need to pay for the workshop in advance?

We believe in flexibility and building trust with our local educators. You don't need to pay anything upfront when booking your Santa Cruz workshop. Payment is settled after the training is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the experience. This ensures a stress-free booking process for schools and independent teachers alike.

Are there any take-home resources provided after the session?

Yes! Every participant receives a comprehensive digital toolkit. This includes lesson plan templates, a glossary of graffiti terms, equipment checklists, and a guide to street art history. These resources are designed to be "plug and play," meaning you can implement a graffiti module in your curriculum the very next week with minimal extra prep.

What is the minimum group size for a Santa Cruz training session?

We recommend a minimum of 5 participants to get the best group dynamic, but we can accommodate much larger groups for district-wide training. If you are an individual teacher, feel free to contact us, and we can see if there is a scheduled open session you can join or if we can tailor a private 1-on-1 intensive for you.

Local culture

Santa Cruz de la Sierra is a city that pulses with a unique blend of tropical energy and modern growth. The street art scene here is exploding, with murals popping up from Equipetrol to the vibrant markets of the city centre. Our training draws inspiration from the local "Cruceño" spirit—bold, colourful, and unafraid to stand out. Did you know? Santa Cruz is home to some of Bolivia's most talented muralists who use the city’s humid, sun-drenched walls as a canvas for social storytelling and cultural pride. By joining our art teacher training, you aren't just learning a craft; you are connecting with a movement that is redefining the visual identity of Santa Cruz itself. 🔥

Fun Fact: Many of the most impressive murals in Santa Cruz are located in the "Casco Viejo" area, where traditional colonial architecture meets cutting-edge urban intervention!

Pricing

Our training sessions are fully customisable to your school's needs or your professional goals. Prices depend on group size, duration, and the specific setup of your location.
