On the first weekend of November (1&2.11.2008), the Multimedia Institute, ULUPUH and pr0be will organize a Blender introduction workshop.
Basic concepts and practical skills in segments will be exercised in order to support further self-learning process of individuals in modeling, sequencing, post-production and logic-programming.
A presentation of Blender will be held last night in net.culture club "MaMa" - which will be used also to instigate forming of Blender user group in Croatia.
The workshop is organized as a part of a CreativeClusters project which focuses on researching, presenting, informing & educating on AV FLOSS tools (Blender, Processing and PD), their communities, ways of self organizing and co-producing work.
The costs of workshop are subsidized by Croatian Ministry of Culture and city of Zagreb.

Summary of the news is a bit off :-)
No real financial input by Croatian government, unless you think of them as overall governing body...but then tax payers should be credited for feeding the funds ;-)
anyway TNX for promotion!
@zeljko: well, you *did* write "The costs of workshop are subsidized by Croatian Ministry of Culture" That sounds an awful lot like financial input, no? ;-)
it does - but not an input of the government but of municipal and national cultural officies :-)
