Workshop fee: $450 per person, Housing: 35Euro/day/person (approx $500 US$). These are student apartments with 2 and 3 bedrooms each. Most are double, a few singles may be available. All with washer/dryers, kitchens, Internet and phones.)

“Portraits in the Parks” will be a combination landscape and figure painting workshop for 10 days all pretty much taking place in the inner city and along the "Ringstrasse" or Ring Boulevard that surrounds the old city. Vienna constructed most of their public parks, civic buildings, museums, opera house, etc on the ring and during June, many of the parks host symphony concerts during the day. My former association with the Institute of European Studies (IES) has given us access to student apartments. This is not an 'all-in-one' package. I've found so many folks want to use their frequent flyer miles and add friends before, during and after, that I'm keeping it very simple. Thus, airfare, meals, 10-day passes for the transportation system, and museum entry fees are all extra.
