Program Information GAS-ART GIFTS (Gregarious Art Statements) was founded 2012 to promote the signed books, artwork, and stationery of renowned children's book illustrator, R. Gregory Christie. We started as a small bookstore inside of a Decatur, Georgia mall, and we now are an online resource for customers seeking uncommon and affordable gifts. Our goal is to create distinctive products that appeal to both adults and children while also promoting creativity, literacy, and diversity.
