Dear Ewa (and also emailing other people interested based on several emails I received),
Yes, we are working with organizations outside New York and outside the US. Last semester we actually worked with two arts organizations in Canada and one museum in Spain. The only thing to note is that most of our courses are in the afternoon or evening so the time difference may limit the number of options available.
