Welcome!

I have visited your site - quite impressed.

We are starting a large fresco project in Baltimore and will be teaching 5-day professional workshop there in august 18-22 this summer.

here is some info (it is not yet posted on the site)

A creation
of the buon fresco cycle in St John’s of Baltimore City United
Methodist Church is soon to begin. Presently the church is working on
the restoration of its sanctuary. As it is planned, the project will
span over 2-7 years, iLia Anossov students will take major part in
working on frescoes as well as local community members will be given
the opportunity to participate and learn. Church’s own housing
facility is used to setup FrescoSchool’s Baltimore location.
*Inaugural 5-day buon fresco workshop is scheduled to take place on
August 18th-22nd 2004 (this class is limited to only 10 participants
- do not miss out).* This partnership offers very exciting
possibilities. Not only will the students enrolled in these classes
learn the priceless fresco techniques present in all our classes,
they will have the opportunity to leave a timeless mark on the
sanctuary itself. The higher level classes will have the opportunity
to decorate the interior of the church with their own frescos, while
they continue their study of fresco painting.

The congregation of St John’s was organized in 1828 from members
expelled by the Methodist Episcopal Church over issue of lay rights
and representation. Throughout the years, the congregation has been
at the forefront of Christian social action. They have taken it upon
themselves to lend their support to the arts and social actions in a
variety of different mediums and settings.

*The Fresco project is another fine example of their dedication to
art and their community. Fresco workshop will be taught in the
church’s sanctuary; a setting whose architecture and beauty we feel
will greatly enriches our instruction. In addition the church will
provide the students with lodgings at $20 per day. The close,
constant contact between the students will help to create a very
intensive study. We are also proud to announce that next year the
Fresco School is also offering more advanced apprenticeships at the
church. Those who participate in the class prior to that point will
be considered first for this higher instruction.*

In maintaining St. John’s social action and interest in the community
along with the arts, the Fresco School will also be involved in
community outreach programs. We plan to offer scholarships to
low-income and homeless individuals with the desire of giving them
applicable skills. It is our hope that this knowledge will enrich
their lives while giving them a valuable knowledge.

We are very excited about this project, and extend an invitation to
all creative individuals from every walk of life. For more
information and enrollment please feel free to give us a call or
visit our web site FrescoScool.com and Contemporary Fresco Gazette at
trueFresco.Org.

The enrollment info, application form , more info and pics will be
posted at http://FrescoSchool.com in the
coming week, however we will strongly suggest contacting our office
to reserve the place right away.
