Workshop in Gloucester by Ekaterina Smirnova
Hi Joey,
Long time no see…
I hope all is going well. By looking at your posts on GMGloucester I could say that you continue to keep everybody updated on local events.
I have a small story for you too.
I will be doing a painting workshop in the beginning on September.
Would you help me to tell everybody about it? I would really appreciate your help.
