Dear All, I always find numerous workshops and events incredibly exciting but they are only posted with a few days in advance, which makes it impossible for me to attend, like in this case. Wouldn't be possible to post them with time in advance so I can have the possibility of adding them to my schedule? Thanks so much!!
