JAN PREPARES FOR RUSSIAN DOLL EXHIBITION
Jan and Dorothy are now in Rostov-On-Don preparing the 4 dolls for exhibition at the Russian Beauty Pageant on Friday 12th September. This is an exclusive event and Jan, Dorothy and old time friend and doll artist Brigitte Duval will be attending as VIP guests along with the Rostov-On-Don region Minister of Education is Guskov Igor Alexandrovich.
Each of the four dolls are one of a kind and one will be auctioned on the night at the gala to raise funds for a local charity.
Jan & Dorothy have spent the last week in Shanghai attending some business meetings, then a bit of R&R and sightseeing of the fantastic exotic cities of Moscow and St. Peterburg. Everyday has been a full day of walking, sightseeing and enjoying some local entertainment at the ballet or opera. Now they have a few days to rest their weary feet, pamper themselves for the gala event tomorrow night and recharge for the rest of their trip, which will see them visit Budapest, Prague, Tuscany, Rotterdam and finally San Fransisco before touching back down in New Zealand.
