That looked quite interesting! I would LOVE to check out the next event!

Could you give us more details?

- Where did this take place? I'm assuming somewhere in Montreal (lucky me!)

- Are the next events already planned? If so which dates in July? I want to know so I can reserve those days immediately! lol

- What are the costs of attending?

Thanks in advance,
Pixie
