Suggestions:
– Please extend the exhibition to go another week longer to take advantage while the Taste Festival is on.
Grants are depending on how close together events are scheduled. A same date means no grant for one of the events (which of course will be us; the newcomers).
For 2020 we didn’t go for a big grant and decided to snuggle up to Taste, but shortly in advance Taste changed their dates to one weekend later. So … no grant and no extra visitors from Taste 
– You can have our window longer next year
We keep this in mind. Thank you so much.
