Russian National Exhibition

 Posted By: Aleksandra Efimova  In: Uncategorized

Welcome to the first Russian National Exhibition at Chicago’s McCormick Place!

The exhibition – running from November 18th to 21st – was opened by Mayor Daley, Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak and a representative from the Russian Trade Ministry. Members of over 100 Russian manufacturing companies traveled across the world to meet with potential clients, partners and business connections in the Chicago area. Guests were entertained by dancers in national costumes, Russian folk musicians and other artists.

This exhibition is an important demonstration of Chicago’s role in Russian-American relations. As an active participant in Russian-American trade for the past 12 years, and founder of Russian Foundation of Chicago, it was with true pride that I witnessed this historical moment in the relationship between these two great countries.

    Hi mrs. Alexsandra i am alexandria i think that is really great what u guys are doin there and i think that should be the start to having every country do this with america . i also have one question i am not currently on pointe yet but in a couple months i probably will be and i know that russian pointe will be the shoe for me. I have moderatley tapered toes wich are medium-long in lenght. I know that i will have to use a toe spacer and tape my little toe since it tends to curl under . i have narrow feet and my toes arent large um i have a medium-low arch so i know i probalby will need the pre-arched shape .My foot is shallow but im not shure which model would be for me i know that me telling u about my self isn’t like a personal fitting but i just want to have an idea so i can know my local dance store carries it. if u could get back to me well thanxs if not i understand

    Russian Pointe shoes are offered through personal fitting and sold by Authorized Retailers throughout North America. We have made our fitting guide available for download on the website to help you understand the qualities of each Russian Pointe model. I also recommend you use our ‘Where to Buy’ feature on our website’s homepage to find the Russian Pointe retailer nearest you.
