Holiday cards with the atmosphere of St. Petersburg: New Year mail at the RUSSIA EXPO
The Gazprom
Pavilion F at the RUSSIA EXPO will host the “Lakhta in Art Focus” New Year Mail
campaign on December 22, 23 and 24 from 12:00 to 20:00.
This is an
art project with New Year postcards inspired by the festive atmosphere of St.
Petersburg, the territory of Bolshaya Lakhta and the Lakhta Center. The
illustrations were created by young St. Petersburg artists. The postcard can be
sent free of charge - all you need to do is to write a greeting and fill in the
data, and the organizers will affix the stamps and deliver the message anywhere
in Russia.
The project is organized by Gazprom with the support of Russian Post and the St. Petersburg Culture Committee for the third year in a row. In St. Petersburg, the project runs from December 10 to December 28, 2023 inclusive at the Rink at the Flagpole.
Anyone can share the festive atmosphere of the city with their loved ones not only in person, but also online on the website of the project's information partner - the St. Petersburg online newspaper Fontanka.ru. All congratulations will be printed out and sent to the addressees.
Participants discussed the contribution of regional authors and small publishing houses to Russian science and shared their experience of engaging with non-fiction literature.
Guests of the National Centre RUSSIA took part in a workshop on festive table setting in the "a la russe" style.
While preparing for their debut, the children did not simply memorise texts, but also learned how to bring them to life and find their own individual style.
