TETE - A - TETE

Ladies and Gentlemen,
we are delighted and moved to invite you to the opening of the painting exhibition by Jan Cegiełka and Małgorzata Szymańska - Cegiełka titled "TETE - A - TETE".

We look forward to this sentimental journey, where, together with his wife Małgorzata Szymańska - Cegiełka, we will be able to admire their artistic achievements, and also remember our colleague, artist, and friend, Janek.

We cordially invite you to this unique meeting.

The opening will take place at the Artistic Exhibition Gallery in the Dobroteka interior gallery (Dobrodzień, ul. Oleska 35) on Friday, June 2, 2023, at 1:00 PM.
