The initiator of the free Day of Creativity and the founder of Goldtime, Indrek Peterson, wishes to give back to the people who have shaped the company’s destiny: “Goldtime is driven by the desire to inspire and fulfill people’s dreams. The key to our success in the past twenty-five years has been the people who have chosen us as their jewelry partner or have contributed their work or creativity to our success story. These are the people we want to thank and to whom we want to give inspiration and beautiful experiences as a token of gratitude. Therefore, it was the only right choice to celebrate the company’s 25 years of operation with our clients and partners, by offering them a free Day of Creativity that caters to experiences for the mind, as well as beauty and auditory senses. Everyone interested is welcome.”
