Do I need previous graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely! Our training is designed for all skill levels. We start with the absolute basics—how to hold a spray can, nozzle pressure, and basic lines—before moving into complex pieces. As an educator, your goal isn't necessarily to be the next Banksy, but to understand the medium well enough to guide your students safely and enthusiastically through their own creative journeys in Sliven.

What safety gear is provided during the workshop?

We take safety very seriously. All participants are provided with high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective overalls. We also provide a comprehensive safety briefing that you can replicate in your classroom. We focus on using low-pressure cans and low-odour paints where possible, ensuring that when you take these skills back to school, you're doing so in a way that protects everyone's health.

Will I receive a certificate after completing the training?

Yes, upon completion, you will receive a Graffitifun Certificate of Participation. While this isn't a state-mandated teaching qualification, it serves as a professional development credential that demonstrates your commitment to learning modern, urban art techniques and safety protocols. It’s a great addition to your teaching portfolio and shows your school leadership that you are staying current with contemporary art trends.

What is the ideal group size for this professional development?

Ideally, a group size of 10 to 20 teachers works best to ensure everyone gets enough individual attention from our pros. However, we are flexible! Whether you are a small department of three or a large faculty looking for a team-building development day in Sliven, we can tailor the session to fit your specific group dynamics and learning objectives.

How long does the teacher training session last?

Our standard teacher training sessions usually last between 2 and 4 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice different spraying techniques, and complete a final collaborative mural. If you have a specific schedule constraints at your school or institution, we can condense the highlights or expand the session into a full-day intensive masterclass.

Do you give advice on how to implement this in schools?

A major part of our training is teaching you how to manage a graffiti project on a budget. We provide a list of essential materials, from types of caps to surfaces. We also discuss how to set up 'pop-up' graffiti walls using cling film or wooden pallets, making it easy and affordable to bring this art form to your students without needing a permanent stone wall.

How does the payment process work for schools?

We keep things simple and stress-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your session in Sliven. We believe in the quality of our training, so you only pay after the workshop is complete. This makes the administrative process much easier for schools and educational organisations that have specific invoicing and payment cycles.

Local culture

Sliven, the City of the Hundred Voivodes, is known for its rugged mountain backdrop and its rich history of independence. This same spirited energy is perfect for the world of graffiti! While the city is famous for its textiles and the Old Elm, there is a growing appreciation for contemporary urban expression. We love bringing our workshops to Sliven because the contrast between the traditional Bulgarian architecture and modern spray art creates such a unique vibe. 🏔️

Fun Fact: Did you know Sliven is one of the windiest cities in Bulgaria? When we're practicing our graffiti outside, we always check the 'Bora' wind—it adds an extra challenge to your can control!
