This year Downside Up is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its operation in Russia. We would like to summarise the results of our work and celebrate this date together with those who have been helping us through the years, this is an important date for all of us, families in our programmes, staff, partners, sponsors and just friends. 
The following events are scheduled to take place within the framework of the anniversary celebration activities:

On November 26th 2007 the presentation of Vladimir Mishukov's photoproject "All you need is love" will take place in Courtyard by Marriott Moscow City Center.
