Education at your school

STRAAT offers several options when it comes to education at your school. These options were designed to be taught on-site at your educational facility. Aside from our own education packages, we can always cater to your institution’s specific wishes through a custom made program, including fitting assignments. 

Our program is suited to all levels and institutions:

• Primary education: multiple programs for regular primary education as well as special primary education.
• Secondary school/high school: vmbo, havo, vwo.
• College and higher learning: mbo, hbo, wo.

Our educational program focuses on the development and rise of street art as a modern-day art movement, also including our very own museum. We will take a closer look at the history through historical and modern artistic developments from a cultural and technical perspective (possibly adjusted to the specific wishes/direction of your educational institute). Students will be introduced to the phenomenon, and will be handed the proper context and information to get a deeper understanding of the culture.
