Hello,
I found your website as I explored the Internet about Lithuania, a country I have enjoyed visiting three times.
I took the liberty of copy-editing the blurb about the Victorian Costumes exhibit. It sounds very interesting, and I wish it would come to the Winnipeg Art Gallery, as well.
While I am unsure about the meaning or full wording for JSC “Ispado“, I smoothed out the English wording within the paragraphs.
I hope you will not take offense. It is included after my note. I cannot speak more than a handful of Lithuanian words, sad to say, and your English is certainly much better than my Lithuanian.
I occasionally provide this type of service for postings which I think may want a polished English format.
Thank you for your attention. I wish you all the best, and hope to hear from you.
Sincerely,
Helene Warkentin
