Open Call: MEDS Workshop Tutor Call in Spetses, Greece
MEDS Spetses Island, Greece: July 26 – August 12, 2019
Open Call Dates: December 17, 2018 – January 15, 2019
In its 10th edition, MEDS Workshop is going to take place this year in Greece, on Spetses Island with its theme “MEMNISO,” which in ancient Greek means “to remember.” The idea of the workshop is to bring traditional professionals together with contemporary crafts and design by exploring new capabilities and learning techniques from local expert craftsmen. The goal of the workshop is to not only learn from local artisans but also exchange knowledge and share skills.
If you are a graphic, product, industrial, or interior designer, architect, photographer, or artist, it’s your time to participate as a tutor at MEDS Workshop. Tutors are offered a chance to prepare, organize and execute a live project, using the allocated time, tools and materials. An annual open call invites tutors to create a proposal in keeping with the theme of the MEDS Workshop.
For more information, you can visit our website or follow us on Facebook and Instagram.
The last day to submit your application is January 15, 2019.
About Us
MEDS workshop “Meetings of Design Students” is an international workshop that takes part each summer in a different country, focusing on various issues, themes, topics and settings that will help any designer expand their expertise. It is a chance to get in touch with diverse approaches to design, different building techniques, traditions, and skills. MEDS workshop is both practical and educational because it focuses not only on creative theoretical designs, but actually compels participants to execute these designs during the 2-week span of the workshop.
Past workshops have taken place at Turkey, Slovenia, Portugal, Ireland, Serbia, Romania, Belgium, and Lebanon.
Accepted applicants will be notified in February.
