The International Institute for Restoration and Preservation Studies is accepting applications (deadline May 1) for this thoughtful exploration of the history, preservation and conservation issues facing the city of Athens, organized around a series of lectures and visits led by some of the top Athenian archaeologists, architects, historians, conservators and planners who have been dealing with the problem of surveying, planning and preserving monuments and cultural heritage in the midst of a growing modern city.
