To accompany our celebration of Armenian Poetry Project’s 15th anniversary with the International Armenian Literary Alliance (IALA), our director Tatevik Ayvazyan chats with founder and poet, Lola Koundakjian. Born in Beirut and now residing in New York City, Lola has been influenced by literature and art from an early age, and today continues to champion the memory and preservation of the incredible poets we have in our community. Lola also shares with us a few of her beautiful poems in both Armenian and English. You can find Lola’s Armenian Poetry Project here or read more about the event.
