Weekly Workshops

Handcraft Workshop
This workshop is given by one of the volunteers of the Center, Totya (also known as Lászlo), and until now had two different themes. The first weeks were to learn how to make bracelets, and the last two weeks a workshop of glass painting has taken place.
This workshop is open to everyone, as everything in our Center, and takes place every Wednesday from 19:30 until 20:30.

Music Workshop
Every Thursday from 19:00 to 20:00 Agelos is giving a music workshop. With some games everyone can learn a bit of how to play the instruments that we have in our center. Together we played guitar, flute, melodica, piano, percussion and more in some funny interactions with each other and games. We also had once a lady who was singing greek songs while we were playing the instruments.

Language Exchanges
One of the first activities we started to have in the Youth Center were the language exchange sessions.
The main idea is the exchange of different languages in a relaxed and informal way. You know Greek, one of the EVS volunteers know his/her mother language but does not know so well Greek, maybe you could teach a bit of Greek and learn a bit of the volunteer's mother language.
Every volunteer here is free to give non-formal and non-professional "lessons" about his/her mother language and not only that one. Agelos is giving English lessons, Jeronimo is giving French, Tota is giving Hungarian, Gianluca is giving Italian, Ece is giving Turkish, Marie is giving German and Daniel is giving Portuguese.
Most of us have already a specific timetable for those lessons, although everything can be arranged. If you are interested just come here and ask us more informations!

Stop Motion Video Workshop
For those who do not know at the first glance what "stop motion video" means, it is simply the creation of a video without video devices. Instead, you use a photo camera to take several shots of something moving very slowly. When those pictures are puted together and seen one after the other it will look like a normal video!
In the first session Filaretos started to explain the basis, and in the next sessions we started to make experiences with clay, to learn from our mistakes, and we had another chance to make one more animation. The results were funny, even with some errors from us, beginners!
Filaretos gives this workshop every Tuesday from 19:30 to 20:30.

Sign Language Workshop
Our most recent workshop is about Sign Language. It is being given by Maria from the KEKYKAmeA Center and yesterday was the first lesson with 10 participants. We learned the Greek alphabet, to say hello, and to say our names! Waiting for the next one!
It happens every Monday from 20:00 to 21:00.

Pictures will be uploaded in the next, and shorter, posts! ;)
