Classes are absolutely free of charge. However, the ultimate goal is to generate a solidarity network among participants. For this reason, participants have a moral obligation to contribute to the community or to the teaching staff using alternative ways.
More specifically, the ways in which one can contribute are:
• Contribution time to the community by teaching, offering services or participation in actions
• Implement projects organized by Synthesis, Athens Fringe Network and Vrysaki
• Ability to propose and organize projects with the support of Synthesis, Athens Fringe Network and Vrysaki
• Implement projects organized by Synthesis, Athens Fringe Network and Vrysaki in collaboration with companies / organizations / institutions
The active and aware citizens come together with the support of our network (Fringe Network) and Vrysaki in order to express their solidarity to their fellow citizens and to the community.
Classes take place at Vrysaki Living Space of Art & Action, 17 Str. Vrysakiou, Plaka [Behind Stoa of Attalos. Metro: Monastiraki]
