Information and conditions
All the courses are open for participants aged from 18 years. Schedule For the duration of the courses the Bild-Werk studios and workshops are open all day as well as in the evenings, allowing students maximum use of the facilities. In some courses, such as hot glass, a working schedule is, however, necessary for technical reasons. The schedule for each individual course will be determined by the course-leader, together with the group. Usually a course day starts between 9 and 10 a.m. and ends between 5 and 6 p.m. Coming together In addition to the course work various related events are offered (e.g. evening slide-shows, life drawing, music and shared meals). Social get-togethers are also an important part of life at Bild-Werk. Communication German and English will, as far as possible, be the languages of communication at the Summer Academy. However, not all tutors are fluent in English, but there is always a way of co-operating with translation in the class.

Costs for some basic materials are included in the course fees.
