Ζητούνται φοιτητές για σχεδιασμό σκίτσων σε συνέδριο της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης (DG Education and Culture Unit for International Cooperation and Programmes) (19/12/2013)
Wanted: Good art students to sketch ideas and discussions
We are interested in capturing the discussions and presentations of a conference in a visual form. To this end we would like to enlist the help of 5-6 art students who would be available to draw sketches of what they hear, understand and the topics most important to the audience. The European Commission will provide a small honorarium for this work but it should not be the motivating force for volunteers.
If you are interested to take part and offer your time and talent please contact Helene Skikos from DG Education and Culture directly at: Helene.Skikos@ec.europa.eu by Friday 3 January.
