Hello and a Happy May to all of you!
space

Everybody is probably wondering what May will be about after the shaky, shocking and full-of-interruptions April. At least we are back to our day to day programme and sending you this Newsletter to let you know what is on at CFCP throughout the whole month.

A’propos May – we googled “What May 2010 is about” and found out that there are over 82 Special Days in May!!!!!  All over the world and including Blueberry Cheesecake Day, Tap Dance Day, Penny Day, Buy-A-Musical-Instrument Day, Socks Day and so on... If you are interested check:
http://familycrafts.about.com/library/spdays/blmaydayslong.htm.

With this in mind we do not have much choice but to try to make all the Special Days in May even more special with our programme of events at CFCP. We wish that among our concerts, screenings, readings, exhibitions and artistic workshops there will be an attractive offer for all of you to join us again!.))
