Zanan Gathering
Salaam Bar Hamegy,
Next Zanan gathering is on Saturday Oct 23. Please reply to me: jamilehpeace@yahoo.com
if you are planning to attend by Friday Oct 22. Thanks.
*************************************************************
We have a very special guest for our next gathering; Torange Yeghiazarian, the founder and artistic director of Golden Thread Productions. Torange founded Golden Thread Productions in October 1996 based on "the belief that our common experience as human beings supersedes our cultural and political differences. In our vast imagination, the Middle East is defined not by geographical boundaries and political separations, but as the shared experience of the people, who throughout history have been touched by its tales, melodies and aromas. The Middle East lives inside us, as we redefine ourselves, we redefine the Middle East." (vision statement: http://www.goldenthread.org/frames.html?aboutus )
The talk will center on Golden Thread Productions, its mission, current programs and future plans. The underlying theme will be an Iranian woman artist sharing her experience and challenges depicting Middle East issues in theater.
