Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely not! Our Art Teacher Training in Tshikapa is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a fine arts maestro or someone who hasn't picked up a spray can before, our professional artists will guide you through the basics. The goal is to teach you the methodology and safety protocols so you can confidently lead your own students through a creative journey later on.

How long does the teacher training session last?

Standard workshops usually last between 2 and 3 hours, but for professional development, we can offer extended half-day or full-day intensives. This allows more time for deep-diving into lesson planning and advanced spray techniques. We are flexible and can work around your school's schedule or your personal availability to ensure you get the most out of the experience without feeling rushed.

Is it safe to use spray paint in an educational setting?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every participant. Our trainers are experts in outdoor and indoor ventilation requirements. Part of the training includes a dedicated session on how to manage a classroom of students safely with aerosol paints, ensuring you know exactly how to set up a secure environment in your own school.

What materials are included in the package?

We provide everything! You don’t need to bring a thing. We supply the high-pressure spray cans, variety of nozzles (caps), protective gear, and the surfaces we’ll be painting on—whether that’s a communal wall or individual canvases. We even provide sketches and inspiration boards to help kickstart your creative process during the workshop. Just wear comfortable clothes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!

Is there an upfront payment required for the booking?

Yes! Unlike many other providers, we don't require any payment before the workshop takes place. We believe in the quality of our training and want you to feel 100% confident in your booking. You can settle the payment after the session is complete and you're satisfied with the results. It's all about building trust within the Tshikapa creative community and making the process stress-free.

What kind of support do I get after the training?

After the session, you'll receive a digital guide summarizing the techniques we covered, along with a list of recommended materials and local suppliers. You'll also have a direct line to our artists if you have follow-up questions while planning your first student workshop. We love seeing the street art movement grow in Tshikapa and are always happy to offer a bit of extra advice.

The experience

Why choose Graffitifun for your professional development in Tshikapa? We don't just teach you how to paint; we teach you how to inspire. Here is why educators love our programme:

Boost Student Engagement: Graffiti is a 'hook' that captures the attention of even the most disengaged students. 🎤
Hands-on Experience: You won't just be watching a slideshow; you'll be on the wall, feeling the pressure of the cap and the flow of the paint.
Complete Safety Mastery: We teach you the professional standards for using aerosols, ensuring your classroom remains a safe space. 🛡️
Lesson Ready: Walk away with a ready-to-use curriculum and project ideas that fit into your existing art syllabus.
No Stress Booking: With our backup artist guarantee and "pay later" policy, your school's budget and schedule are always protected. 🏆

Step by step

Intro and safety briefing: We start by getting to know each other and gear up with professional masks and suits while discussing the 'Golden Rules' of graffiti safety.
Equipment mastery: You'll learn the difference between various spray cans and 'caps' (nozzles) to understand how to control line thickness and pressure.
Basic techniques: Practice your first lines, dots, and fills on the wall to get a feel for the medium under expert supervision.
Lettering and style: Dive into the anatomy of graffiti letters, from simple tags to 3D 'throw-ups' and 'pieces'.
Color theory in the streets: Learn how to teach students about colour blending and fading using spray paint shadows and highlights.
The teaching blueprint: We discuss how to structure a 90-minute workshop for kids or teens, including timing and group management.
Collaborative mural: Work together on a final large-scale project to experience the power of collective street art.
Review and Q&A: A final wrap-up where we answer specific questions about implementing this curriculum in your specific educational environment.

Local culture

Tshikapa is a city defined by its incredible energy and its location at the confluence of the Tshikapa and Kasai rivers. This flow of water and commerce creates a unique backdrop for artistic expression. While the city is famous for its diamond trade, we believe the real "diamonds" are the creative minds in our schools! 💎

In Tshikapa, there is a growing interest in modern visual arts as a way to tell local stories. By bringing graffiti training to teachers here, we are helping to bridge the gap between traditional Congolese art forms and global urban culture. 🌍

Fun Fact: Did you know that the name 'Tshikapa' comes from the local word for a 'belt' or 'vortex' formed by the meeting of the two rivers? Your art can have that same powerful, swirling impact on your students!

Pricing

We offer competitive rates to ensure that street art education is accessible to all schools and educators in the Kasai region. Our pricing is transparent and reflects the high quality of materials and expertise we provide.

Investment: FC50,000 - FC120,000 per person

*Note: Final pricing depends on the number of participants, the duration of the training, and the location of the venue.

Remember: no upfront payment is required! You only pay once the training is successfully completed. ✨
