The deadline for registration is extended

The deadline for the registration to our workshop is extended.

Now the deadline is 1st July.

Changes in workshop programme and participation fee

After consultations with users who have already applied for workshop we have decided to do some changes in programm which allows as also to reduce costs and at the same time keep program attractive.

First of all we have divided the programme into 3 parts:
Working camp

Organized to help in preparation of the feast for the Suprasl monastery. Participation is free. The camp is organized by Supraska Academy and it could be a great experience to be able to live next to monastery and help monks to prepare their feast. (dates: 6-11.08.2010). Costs: 60 EURO

Orthphoto Workshop
Main event with workshops and trips which allows participants to learn a bit about photography, discuss photography from an orthodox perspective, make friendships and visit and learn more about Polish orthodoxy (dates:11-19.08.2010) full programm

Feast at the monastery in Grabarka
The biggest feast for Orthodox Church believers in Poland. This year H.E. Patriarch Bartholomew will be also as a guest during the feast (dates 18-19 August) (costs: maximum 30EURO accommodation costs plus travel – there might be lower prize version )

The workshop is organized not only to improve individual skills. We also believe that participants will help us develop website’s rules and tools and maybe our editorial team will increaese number of members and countries. We have applied for grant which we hope will allow us to organize workshop on minimal costs and in some cases help us to support those who can not afford travel costs. So please if you want to take part in this event do not look at your financial condidtion just apply and ask as as much as you need.

After 1st July we will know if we have received this grant and we will be able to decide if we are doing workshop and how much we can support you.

Please remember that the deadline for the registration to our workshop is extended – now the deadline is 1st July.
