Why choose us in Linz?

Why choose a graffiti training session with us? Because art should be lived, not just studied! Here’s why educators in Linz are choosing Graffitifun for their PD:

  • Student Engagement: Graffiti is the ultimate hook to get disengaged students back into the art room. 🎨
  • Skill Diversification: Add a modern, highly-requested technique to your professional CV. 🏆
  • Safety Expertise: We show you how to handle 'rebellious' art in a controlled, safe, and professional manner. 🛡️
  • No Stress Planning: We provide you with a ready-made curriculum structure to take straight to your classes. ✨
  • Team Bonding: It’s a fantastic way to bond with your colleagues outside the staff room. 🎉
  • No Hidden Costs: We bring everything; you just show up in your 'painting clothes.' 💪

How it works

  1. Introduction to Urban Culture: We start with a brief, high-energy history of graffiti to give you the context you need for your students.
  2. Safety & Gear Check: Learn how to properly fit masks and gloves, and how to set up a safe workstation in a school setting.
  3. Can Control 101: Master the 'muscle memory' of spraying, including distance, speed, and how to swap nozzles for different effects.
  4. Sketching & Scaling: We show you how to help students move their ideas from a small piece of paper to a massive wall.
  5. Teaching Methodology: This is the 'teacher' bit—we share tips on managing group dynamics and keeping the flow when everyone is spraying.
  6. The Masterpiece: Put your skills to the test by creating a full-scale piece, experiencing exactly what your students will feel.
  7. Cleanup & Sustainability: Learn the best practices for clearing up and how to handle leftover materials responsibly.
  8. Feedback & Curriculum Planning: A final sit-down to discuss how to integrate these lessons into your specific art syllabus.

Frequently asked questions

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

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our training is designed to take you from 'stick-figure beginner' to 'confident spray-can leader.' We cover the absolute basics of can control, pressure, and nozzle types before moving into the teaching methodology. You'll learn right alongside your peers in a supportive, judgment-free environment, ensuring you feel comfortable demonstrating these skills to your own students later on. Our goal is to empower your creativity.

Is spray painting safe for a school environment?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits for every participant. During the session, we teach you exactly how to manage a classroom full of students with spray cans safely, including proper ventilation techniques and material storage. You will leave the workshop with a comprehensive safety checklist that you can implement in your own school or community centre immediately.

What materials are provided during the training session?

Everything is included in the price! We provide all the professional-grade spray paint, various nozzle sizes (caps), protective gear, and practice surfaces. We also provide digital resources and a physical handbook for you to take home. The only thing we recommend you bring is a pair of comfortable old shoes, as the ground in workshop areas can sometimes get a little bit of 'accidental' colour during the process.

How long does the professional development session last?

Our standard teacher training workshops in Linz typically last between 2.5 and 3.5 hours. This timeframe allows us to dive deep into both the physical art techniques and the pedagogical side of things. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy high while ensuring everyone has enough time to complete a full piece and ask all their technical questions about curriculum integration.

Can we do the training on-site at our own school?

While we provide canvases for practice, we can also arrange for the training to take place on larger walls or mobile wooden surfaces if your school plans to do mural work. If you have a specific wall at your facility in Linz that you’d like to transform, let us know! We love tailoring the training to the specific environment where you will actually be teaching.

Will I receive a certificate after completing the course?

Yes! Upon completion of the Professional Development (PD) session, every participant receives a Graffitifun certificate. This serves as proof of your training in street art techniques and safety management. Many teachers in Upper Austria use this certificate to count towards their required annual professional development hours. It's a great addition to your teaching portfolio and proves you're ready to lead a modern, urban art curriculum.
