Dear gregoryantsy!
In today's post we would like would sum up our traditional Christmas campaign - namely, prepare gifts for family, Gregory and his family. Within two months, we collectively discussed, devised, prepared and decorations for these Christmas gifts online ( here ). And now we are pleased to announce that all conceived gifts were we have successfully implemented on time and sent to France , to please our beloved family in these winter holidays.
As you all well know any one year does not do us no creative gift for family Lemarshal - a gift that gregoryantsy either invent or create their hands. This year we stayed on the original idea of making those close to hand Greg a big book of creativity and messages with which we could would give them a piece of our love, warmth and respect, as well as tell the story of Russian gregoryantsev and show snippets of our creativity.
This remarkable book, of course, required a lot of work - first organization, then the preparations, and then work on the most "establishment" book - and it was, believe me, a very laborious process, which was attended by all gregoryantsy who visited December 5 our «Meeting of Friends Angela - Creative gatherings » . For more than seven hours all of us together tirelessly worked on the creation of the book - draw, cut, pasted, signed, creating each page, putting it in all its efforts and creativity:). But those gregoryantsy who could not attend the meeting, also contributed to the creation of a gift in helping us select materials, coming up with ideas for the organization of the book itself and its implementation. It's really came the collective creativity of our wonderful forum, and we sincerely tell you thank you very much, because everyone contributed to the creation of a gift something of their own. You can read more information on the preparation of this creative gift and the meeting itself in our forum here in this section . And we would like to tell you of the finished book and show the result of our joint efforts with you.
Our book art «Gregory Lemarchal in Russia» called «The Neverending Story Little Prince in Russia »- L'histoire infinie du Petit Prince en Russi e . The idea of the name, we thank Anna.
start our book with large map of Russia and CIS, which with the help of tiny paper cut out of white and blue balls marked the city, inhabited by Russian-speaking gregoryantsy. We are confident that the family Lemarshal will be very interesting to look at the geographic "scale" gregoryanstva in Russia and CIS countries.
Further, parents can read Gregory Happy New Year and Christmas , co-written gregoryantsami, and marvel at our wonderful Christmas tree with these gifts and snow drifts at the base.
Of course, Gregory, we also could not leave without a message - we selected a few excerpts from letters gregoryantsev to our little prince , and carefully put each piece into a small envelope, a stream of air blown by the higher you go. Angels understand all languages, and especially the language of the heart, so the message for Gregory, we left without translation - as they were written originally.
Then, in our book begins section devoted to the work gregoryantsev . On one page we have combined all our wonderful pictures, associated with Gregory, on the other - poem (translated to Anya), and the third - collages, oboyki and all other works of visual art.
The next section of the book is devoted to the project Greg Academy - we tried a brief, but the bulk form to tell a family Lemarshal everything: write the principles and rules of the game, to provide the participants and to show excerpts of the most brilliant speeches Prime and Ebal (for details on how the game is played Greg Academy you can read on the forum in this section ).
And after Greg Academy, we lit up and our other big project - game-quest GregoAventure , held in Moscow in the autumn of last year (more on the game you can read the article community here ). And also we have made to these two projects drive on which to record a movie on GregoPriklyuchenii and video and audio of the participants, Greg Academy.
«Gregory for us it is ...» - another section of this book. It consists of many glued to album daisies, and on each petal of each daisy is written one word that characterizes Gregory for Russian gregoryantsev. These words were also collected in the relevant subject on the forum.
Next book tells the story of our activities The project «Gregory Lemarchal in Russia» and Russian gregoryantsev meetings held in various cities of Russia.
A final section called «Our struggle» , and in it we show pictures of our children, patients with cystic fibrosis, and talk about volunteer activities, on research our actions, about the artists who visited our children in the hospital, and much more.
We are confident that our book will be a big surprise for the family Lemarshal and sincerely will appreciate them, because in the work on it a piece of embedded souls of all the Russian gregoryantsev, and friends, Gregory will be very nice to feel our warmth and care.
We once again thank all gregoryantsev taking participation in the creation of the book - for ideas, for inspiration, for printing materials for the "physical" support and presence at the meeting, and we want to say Special thanks to those guys who undertook to assist us in organizing all of this difficult process, and for many weeks with us thought through and discussing all the fine details - Anya, Julia, Kate, Nadia, and Nikita .
