Well, I have been preparing for this event as I know that it's going to be iconic! A lot of people worked so hard to be part of Boca de Oro (Mouth of Gold) Festival of Literary Arts & Culture. Before, not all people are being invitee by the said festival, but now, everyone is free to come especially if they really want to have fun! The said festival received so much love and admiration from people and all they want to experience is to be part of it once again. Well, I cannot blame them since Boca de Oro (Mouth of Gold) Festival of Literary Arts & Culture is really a beautiful one! 3/29/2020 11:20:01 pm
It's actually really sad to realize that I missed the opportunity to witness such a spectacular event like this. I wish you can still organize more festivals or events in the future because I am so sure that the ones you organize are indeed fun and exciting! Also, if possible, please update us with these said events because I would like to make myself aware of them as soon as possible so that I can make time. Anyway, I would also like to say good luck on your events and I am rooting for your success. You will surely nail every event that you will handle. Leave a Reply. |
