16.06.2025 19:40 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I think the prob is that none of us have graphics design staff or $$ for marketing agencies, so we use Canva or whatev. So, the appeal is high just to do something different (& its free).
To use real pics we need releases, esp. with minors so we can't just catch cute, candid moments & post them.
Who's coming to Thomas Birthday weekend? Our front conference is full of special displays this weekend only plus Thomas trains and exhibits in our main museum space also! Open Sat 10-5, Sun 12-5!
