Do I need to be an experienced artist to take this training?

Not at all! Our training is designed to take you from 'stick-figure' level to 'street-art savvy.' We focus on the pedagogical techniques of spray painting—how to teach the mechanics, safety, and history—so even if you aren't an active artist yet, you will leave with the skills and confidence to lead a class of your own.🎨

Is spray painting safe for a school environment?

We prioritize student safety above all else. During the session, we cover the essential use of FFP3 masks, nitrile gloves, and proper ventilation. We also teach you how to set up 'legal' surfaces like cellophane walls or temporary boards, ensuring you can bring graffiti into your school environment in Tampere without any legal or health risks.🛡️

Can I really integrate graffiti into a standard art curriculum?

Absolutely. Street art is a fantastic gateway for discussing modern history, social justice, typography, and colour theory. We provide you with teaching materials and lesson plan ideas that align with modern curriculum goals, helping you integrate this urban art form into your existing syllabus in a way that feels academic yet incredibly exciting for students.📚

What materials do I need to bring to the workshop?

All you need is an open mind and comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. We provide everything else: professional-grade spray cans, caps (nozzles), protective gear, and the surfaces we will be painting on. We even provide digital resources after the session so you can continue your learning journey at home.✨

How long does the professional development session last?

Our teacher training sessions typically last between 2.5 and 4 hours. This allows enough time for a bit of theory, a lot of hands-on practice, and a dedicated 'Q&A' segment where we discuss logistics like budgeting for cans and managing a classroom full of excited teenagers with spray paint! It's a fast-paced, high-energy session.⏱️

Where in Tampere does the training take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We can host the training at one of our dedicated street art spots in Tampere, or we can come directly to your school or community centre. If you have a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated indoor area, we can set up our mobile graffiti walls and bring the experience right to your doorstep.school.🏫

What happens if I'm not satisfied with the training?

We believe in the quality of our workshops so much that we offer a 100% satisfaction focus. If you feel the training didn't meet your professional needs, we'll work with you to make it right. Plus, with our 'save-the-date' guarantee and backup artists, you never have to worry about a session being cancelled last minute. Your professional development is in safe hands.💪

Local culture

Tampere is a city that perfectly blends its "Manse" industrial heritage with a thriving, modern creative scene. From the iconic red-brick factories to the vibrant vibe of the Pelitori and the street-side galleries appearing in the Kyttälä district, there is inspiration around every corner. Teaching graffiti here feels natural—it’s a city built on making things, and street art is the ultimate form of modern making. We often draw inspiration from the local mural projects found near the railway station and the hidden gems in Pispala.

Fun Fact: Did you know Tampere is home to some of Finland's pioneer street art spots? The city’s unique landscape of bridges and underpasses has long served as a canvas for local legends, making it the perfect classroom for aspiring street art educators! 🎨
