Synopsis of the program:
Starting in Nafplio and ending in Thessaloniki, this travel-study program takes as its theme the development of scripts and of writing technologies. Participants visit museums and historical sites along the way, where they have the chance to get up-close views of clay tablets, scrolls, illuminated manuscripts, printing presses, early printed Bibles, and more. Program is open to a limited number of participants, on a first-come first-served basis.
