Vilnius: Workshop for Lithuanian museums involved in EuropeanaPhotograpy project

Lithuania

14 March 2012 - Europeana Photography Workshops

Museum specialists are concerned about the participation in EuropeanaPhotography project. The aim of this workshop was to give them basic information about this international project, administrative and financial issues as they will be providing content in the following months. The participants could express their doubts and discuss any questions regarding the project implementation in Lithuanian museums. Those who could not participate received all relevant information by email.

The practical workshop was useful for most of them as the training on how to scan photo negative or positive and edit digital image was provided in the teaching classroom.
