In the midst of an ongoing war in Iran and recognition of the suffering the Iranian people endured in the last decades under the regime of ayatollahs, we want to celebrate the Iranian people and their culture.
Come to share and experience the joy and beauty of Iran by celebrating Nowruz (Iranian New Year) with us. A heartfelt Iranian movie, a saffron infused mocktail, a traditional haftseen table, and a delicious Persian dessert are waiting for you!
Because in the world that wants to divide us, erase our cultures, and reproduce suffering, shared joy is an act of resistance!
