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.

Having kitchens in the apartments should keep food costs very low. There are small markets at almost every street corner, making food purchasing very simple. The $450 covers model fees, your instructor and tour guide (me) and a wonderful introduction to one of the least known treasures of Europe with museums crammed full of Hapsburg and Ottoman Empire pilfering that amasses work to rival the Metropolitan in NY. Then there are the museums devoted to artists like Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. And if you like to eat.... ah Vienna's bakeries are infamous. This will not be a diet trip!

I am limiting this workshop to 10 folks and the cut-off date for signup is December 31, 2008. A $950 fee includes $450 for the workshop and $500 for housing (this can change with the Euro/Dollar exchange rates, so stay tuned). A non-refundable deposit of $200 dollars will be required at that time. The remaining $750 will be due March 31, 2009. If for any reason the trip must be cancelled after December 31 and before March 31, I will refund your $200. If the trip must be cancelled after March 31, I will refund the remaining $750 you have paid beyond the $200 down payment.
