Do I need prior experience with graffiti to join the training?

Absolutely not! Our art teacher training in Sunyani is designed for all skill levels. We start with the basics of spray can control and safety before moving into advanced mural techniques. The goal is to give you the confidence to teach these skills to your students, regardless of whether you've ever picked up a spray can before today. We provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment for every educator.

Is the spray paint safe to use in a school setting?

We take safety very seriously. All participants are provided with high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits. We also conduct our Sunyani workshops in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or specialized studios. Our professional artists will guide you through the correct handling of aerosol cans to ensure a safe, fume-free environment for both you and your future students back at school.

How long does a typical training session last?

Our professional development sessions are highly flexible, usually lasting between 2 to 4 hours. However, we can also organize full-day intensives or multi-day residencies depending on your school's needs. We understand that teachers are busy, so we work around your schedule to ensure you get the most impact out of the time we spend together in the studio.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything! Your booking includes all premium spray paint, various nozzle "caps" for different effects, protective clothing, and practice surfaces. We also provide digital resources and lesson plan templates that you can take back to your classroom. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty while you create your masterpiece.

Can this training help with my official professional development hours?

Yes, our training is specifically structured to help you meet curriculum goals. We cover how graffiti intersects with art history, colour theory, typography, and social justice. By the end of the session, you'll have a clear framework for how to integrate street art into your existing syllabus in a way that is both educational and exciting for your students in Sunyani.

How do I handle the 'vandalism' aspect of graffiti with my students?

We focus on "Street Art with a Heart." A major part of our curriculum involves teaching students about the difference between illegal vandalism and community-commissioned murals. We show you how to channel your students' energy into positive, legal creative outlets that beautify the school environment rather than damaging it, helping to foster a sense of pride and ownership in the school community.

The experience

Traditional art education is wonderful, but sometimes you need to shake things up to reach every student. Street art is a powerful tool for inclusion, social emotional learning, and pure creative joy. Here is why our Sunyani training is a game-changer for your career: 🚀

Boost Student Engagement: Catch the attention of students who usually "tune out" during traditional sketching lessons.
Learn from the Pros: Our instructors are active street artists with years of experience in both the gallery world and the streets. ✨
Practical Skills: Don't just learn the theory—get your hands on the cans and master the techniques yourself.
Curriculum Ready: We provide lesson plans and resources that align with modern educational standards. 📚
Stress-Free Setup: We handle all the logistics, from paint to protective gear, so you can focus on learning.
Total Peace of Mind: With our "no upfront payment" policy and backup artist guarantee, your professional development is in safe hands. 🏆

Introduction to Urban Aesthetics: We start with a brief history of global and Ghanaian street art to set the context for your training.
Safety and Gear Briefing: Learn the essential safety protocols, from correct mask fitting to managing a classroom full of spray cans.
Mastering the Tool: Hands-on practice with spray cans, learning how distance, pressure, and speed affect your lines and gradients.
Can control and Lettering: Move from basic shapes to 'tagging' and 'throw-ups,' understanding the anatomy of graffiti typography.
Stencil and Layering Techniques: Explore how to use stencils to help younger or less confident students achieve professional-looking results quickly.
Collaborative Mural Planning: Work together to design a large-scale piece, learning how to scale up sketches using the 'doodle grid' method.

Curriculum Integration Workshop: A final sit-down session to discuss how to translate these skills into actionable lesson plans for your specific year groups.

Local culture

Sunyani, often called the "Green City" of Ghana, is the perfect backdrop for a creative explosion. While known for its clean streets and lush surroundings, there is a growing appetite for urban expression among the youth here. By bringing street art to the schools of Sunyani, we are helping to cultivate a new generation of artists who can blend traditional Ghanaian motifs with modern urban styles. We love the energy of the local markets and the academic spirit of the university—it's a city that values growth and education.

Fun Fact: Sunyani is consistently ranked as one of the cleanest cities in Ghana. Our workshops emphasize the "legal walls" movement, teaching students how to enhance this beauty through organized, professional murals rather than random tagging! 🎨

Pricing

We believe every school has unique needs and budgets. Whether you are a small private academy or a large public institution, we can tailor a package that fits perfectly. Prices depend on group size, duration, and the specific setup required for your site.
