A children’s press conference with Russia’s main Ded Moroz will be held at the National Centre RUSSIA
On December
27 at 14:00, the All-Russian Ded Moroz from Veliky Ustyug in the Vologda region
will hold a children's press conference at the National Centre RUSSIA. The
event is part of the "New Year Russia" program.
The meeting
will be moderated by young actress and writer Nicole Plieva. Special guest of
the program will be writer Alyona Kashura, author of the popular children's
book "Attention! Ded Moroz Wanted."
During the
press conference, the All-Russian Ded Moroz will answer questions from students
in the audience, many of whom study in Moscow's media classes and are preparing
for future careers in media. Children from the town of Kovdor in the Murmansk
region, located 100 km from the Arctic Circle, will have the opportunity to ask
questions via a video link. The best question from users of the social network
VKontakte will also be chosen and posed to Ded Moroz.
The press
conference will feature simultaneous sign language interpretation organized by
the All-Russian Society of the Deaf. For the first time, the children's
creative group of hearing-impaired children, "Angels of Hope," will
present a music video for the song "White Snow" in sign language at
the event.
At the end
of the press conference, all participants will have the chance to taste a new
pastry from the National Centre RUSSIA — the "vitushka." In addition,
Ded Moroz will present the children with Vologda ice cream. The children will
also receive "New Year Russia" postcards, which they can send to any
destination in the world via a special mailbox located at the National Centre.
Schoolchildren
who visit the National Centre RUSSIA will be able to participate in a contest
for the best media material based on their visit and compete for the grand
prize — a ticket to the ballet "The Nutcracker" with multimedia
decorations at the National Centre.
The
partners of the press conference include the Administration of the Vologda
Region, the Administration of the Murmansk Region, the All-Russian Society of
the Deaf, the Moscow Department of Education and Science, JSC Russian Post, and
LLC Vologda Ice Cream.
