As I said, one of my super-fun activities for World Refugee Day was organizing an exhibition/bazaar with participation of refugee and expatriate women and men.
After asking here and there "hey, do you know any Syrian Armenian women/men who are doing handicraft?", we finally managed to have the the whole first floor of UN House filled with works of talented participants.
"Was in tough?" - one would ask. Yes, it was. "Did I manage?" - you would wonder. Yes. I did!
I would like to thank Vrouyr Bilemjian, my very good Syrian-Armenian friend, who provided contact numbers of those talented Syrian-Armenian women, who not only got the chance to exhibit, but also sell their works.
I am happy we organized this exhibition.
Btw, the Diversity for Change group was there as well. They are always there for me! :)
