Why choose us in Vienna?

Why choose Graffitifun to level up your teaching skills? We aren't just artists; we are educators who know how to make street art work in a school setting. Here is why teachers in Vienna love working with us:

  • Complete confidence boost: Go from "I've never touched a can" to "I can lead a class of thirty" in just one afternoon. 🚀
  • Curriculum ready: We provide you with the historical context and technical steps that fit perfectly into KS3, GCSE, or IB art modules.
  • No-risk booking: With no upfront payment and backup artists always on standby, your school’s schedule is safe with us. 🛡️
  • Stress-free setup: We handle all the messy bits. We bring the gear, set up the protection, and leave your space (mostly) as we found it!
  • Student engagement: Graffiti is a "hook" that engages even the most reluctant students—learn how to use that power effectively. 🎤
  • Professional networking: Connect with Vienna's street art scene and discover legal spots for future school trips.

How it works

  1. Intro to the culture: We start with a brief, high-energy briefing on graffiti history and how to translate street culture into a curriculum-friendly format.
  2. Safety first: Learn the essential health and safety protocols, from mask fitting to setting up a safe 'spray zone' on school grounds. ✨
  3. Can control basics: Our artists show you how to hold the can, swap nozzles (caps), and manage pressure for clean lines.
  4. Lettering & styles: Practice the 'Tag', 'Throwie', and 'Piece'—the three pillars of graffiti—so you can teach the progression of style.
  5. Designing the mural: We move to the wall (or large canvases) where you'll learn how to scale up a small sketch into a massive collaborative work.
  6. Filling & fades: Master the art of colour gradients and 'cuts' to make your artwork pop with professional depth. 🎨
  7. Outline & highlights: The 'clean up' phase where you learn to add those final crisp lines and 'power lines' that define top-tier street art.
  8. Classroom management tips: We wrap up with a discussion on how to handle spray paint in a group of 30 kids without total chaos!
  9. Final masterpiece: Step back and admire the collective mural your team has created—ready to be replicated with your students. 🔥

Frequently asked questions

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

Absolutely! While we dive into advanced techniques, the training is designed to build your confidence from the ground up. We start with basic spray can control and safety before moving into complex mural planning. Whether you are a fine arts expert or a complete novice to street art, our professional artists will ensure you leave feeling capable of leading your own classroom session.

Is the spray paint safe for use in a school environment?

Naturally, safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, gloves, and protective suits. During the training, we teach you exactly how to set up a safe outdoor or well-ventilated indoor workspace for your students. We also cover the 'legal vs. illegal' talk, ensuring you can guide your pupils on where they can practice their new skills responsibly in Vienna.

How long does the training session usually last?

Our standard professional development sessions in Vienna usually last between 3 to 4 hours. However, we can also offer full-day intensives if you want to master more intricate styles like 3D lettering or character design. We are flexible and can work around your school's schedule or inset day timings to make it as convenient as possible for your team.

What is the ideal group size for a teacher training workshop?

We recommend a minimum of 5 participants to get the best collaborative energy, but we can accommodate large faculty groups of up to 40 people at once. If you have a very large department, we can bring in multiple graffiti artists to ensure everyone gets enough individual hands-on time and feedback. It’s a brilliant way to build team spirit among staff!

Do we receive any teaching materials to take back to school?

Yes, you do! Every participant receives a toolkit of resources, including printable templates, a safety checklist for schools, and a guide on the history of street art. You’ll also walk away with your own canvas or mural contribution. These resources are designed to be 'plug-and-play' so you can head straight back to the classroom and start teaching graffiti the very next week.

What materials do we need to bring to the workshop?

Graffitifun provides everything. This includes a wide range of premium spray cans (MTN 94 or Montana Cans), various nozzles (caps) for different line widths, protective gear, and the surfaces we’ll be painting on. You just need to show up in clothes you don’t mind getting a bit of paint on—even though we provide suits, accidents can happen when you're having this much fun!
