Do I need previous experience with graffiti to join?

Absolutely! Our training is designed for all skill levels. Most art teachers we work with in St Gallen have a background in traditional media but little experience with spray paint. We start with the absolute basics—how to hold the can, nozzle types (caps), and pressure control—before moving into complex lettering and mural techniques. You will leave feeling confident and ready to teach these skills to your students.

Is it safe to bring spray painting into a school environment?

Safety is our priority. We provide all necessary personal protective equipment (PPE), including high-quality masks, gloves, and overalls. During the training, we also cover the health and safety protocols you'll need to implement when running your own classroom workshops. We discuss ventilation, eco-friendly paint options, and how to manage a large group of students safely in an outdoor or indoor setting.

Will I receive a certification after the training?

Yes, upon completion of the professional development session, we provide a certificate of participation. This document outlines the techniques mastered and the safety protocols covered. Many teachers in Switzerland use this as part of their formal continuing education credits. It’s a great way to prove you’ve expanded your pedagogical toolkit with modern, urban art forms that resonate with today's youth.

What materials are included in the session?

We provide everything you need. This includes a wide variety of professional spray cans, different types of 'caps' (nozzles), protective gear, and the surfaces we will be painting on. We also provide educational handouts and digital resources that you can use as lesson plans later. All you need to bring is your creativity and some comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on!

How long does the teacher training session last?

Our standard professional development workshops in St Gallen typically last between 2.5 to 4 hours. This allows enough time for a deep dive into history, hands-on practice, and a final collaborative piece. However, we can adapt the duration to fit into your school's 'Weiterbildung' schedule or pedagogical day. We are flexible and can work with you to create the perfect timetable.

What is the pricing for a group of teachers?

The cost usually ranges from CHF 40 to CHF 85 per person, depending on the size of your group and the specific training modules you choose. This includes all premium materials and expert instruction. Because every school department has different needs, we recommend requesting a custom quote so we can give you the most accurate price for your specific St Gallen location.

Local culture

St Gallen is world-famous for its stunning Abbey and textile history, but there is a growing, vibrant street art scene hidden in its modern corners. From the creative energy around the Lokremise to the local 'halls of fame,' the city provides a perfect backdrop for urban art education. Fun fact: While St Gallen is known for its intricate lace, modern street artists here are using 'stencil lace' techniques to pay homage to the city's heritage! We love connecting these local traditional roots with modern spray-can techniques during our professional development sessions. 🎨
