ECA has been carefully monitoring the news and updates in relation to the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The safety and best interest of our students has always been our priority.

We plan to hold all courses in 2021 face-to-face. During the courses ECA follows strict safety regulations suggested by Italian and Dutch governments. Our last Erasmus course was held in October 2020 and was safe for all the participants.

In case of COVID-19 related restrictions we will postpone the course to a later date. You will be able to transfer your participation free of charge. We support your transfer with the national agency.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Amsterdam and Venice and share our love and knowledge in art and creativity. We stay at your disposal for application questions.
