the provisional meeting schedule ▪ The fact that our partners will arrive and depart on different dates, limits in 2 the days of common work. ▪ This schedule of course is under discussion!

The WORKSHOPS ▪ The main workshop of crATH-art will be the RECYCLING ART AND FASHION. The idea is to divide the students into 4 or 5 groups working with different materials and experimenting various ways to create works of art, objects, clothes.

The WORKSHOPS ▪ We would like to involve the technical departments of our school, and we thought about two workshops: ▪ In collaboration with the department of ELECTROLOGY and ELECTRONICS: Working with light. How to put light in a work of art. ▪ In collaboration with the department of CAR MECHANICS: Making sculpture with used car mechanical parts. We are in touch with the artist Giannis Dendrinos, who is working with these materials.

The WORKSHOPS Some other ideas: -PHOTO STORY: telling stories with fotos and text about crisis. -WALL ART: painting the walls of the school (not all of them, of course…), leaving a message of hope. OF COURSE, WE ARE OPEN TO YOUR IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS!

two important topics to discuss 1.Will there be an art market in Athens? 2.Will there be an exhibition of artwork from all the countries?
