DRAW CIVITA! Join award-winning architectural illustrator Stephanie Bower July 5-10, 2013 for an unforgettable sketching workshop set in Civita di Bagnoregio.  Developed in cooperation with NIAUSI, this intensive (and fun!) series of drawing experiences will immerse you in a truly remarkable part of central Italy - off the tourist path - and enable you to learn new sketching and watercolor skills from a talented artist and experienced teacher.  For more information on this wonderful opportunity, please go to Stephanie's web site at http://stephaniebower.com.

About

The Northwest Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies in Italy (NIAUSI) is a member-supported nonprofit corporation established in 1981 by academics, architects, students, Italians, and professional members of the Pacific Northwest design community.

Originally intended as a means of involving the professional community in the learning experience provided by the Italian Studies Program of the University of Washington's College of Architecture and Urban Planning, NIAUSI's purpose has evolved and expanded to more widely support cultural exchange and excellence in the design quality of the built environment through our Fellowships, Membership "Stay" programs and educational programs located at our facility in Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy.  We would be honored to have you join as a Member.
