Europe is calling! Join the Project Shalom Media Team this summer. Media students can utilize what they are learning at Olivet. Journey to The Netherlands and Germany as you share your own media abilities learned at Olivet through a youth media camp in Amsterdam. We will then travel by train to Germany where we will be building a new media production studio. Also, let’s hike in the Alps, explore castles, and take in breathtaking views of the European countryside. The team will be looking for specific skills sets, so let us know your passion!
