On the 14th and 15th of May, a creative weekend was held at the Faculty of Contemporary Arts. On that occasion, FCA hosted a large number of high school students from all over Serbia.

These are their impressions:
“We participated in a workshop for interior design. It was amazing… The professors and students were kind and helpful. The workshop lasted for three and a half hours, but it was so interesting that we didn’t even notice. It was also very creative and they taught us how to arrange any interior. I can’t wait for the next one”, enthused Sofija Vojnović (Y10, International School).
“I went to an interior design workshop for the first time and I am glad the workshop at FCA was my first one. It lasted almost four hours with breaks, but we didn’t even notice because we had so much fun with professors and students who are part of FCA. They were so kind and they really helped us on the project we did in the workshop. It was a really good experience and I look forward to the next one”, said Andrea Kačarević (Y10, International School).
