Come and find us this week at the Armenian Pavilion stand 6G81 during The London Book Fair from 5-7 April! We'll be displaying our publications from both Armenian Institute and Mashtots Press imprints.
Visit our stall in the Armenian Pavilion for the chance to take home a free copy of our latest publication, I Ask You, Ladies and Gentleman by Leon Z. Surmelian, and find out more about our publication projects!
We’re also honoured to be holding a very special, all-star panel of Armenian literary and cultural experts, hosted by AI Director Tatevik Ayvazyan in person, at our library, and on Zoom on Thursday April 7. Our panel will discuss the state of Armenian publishing, in Eastern and Western Armenian and in other languages, and both in Armenia and worldwide, including the interests and reading patterns of the global Armenian public, current translation projects, the latest Armenian literary trends, digital publishing and digitisation - and more! Our panel includes Olivia Katrandjian, Armenian-American writer and journalist whose reporting has appeared in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the BBC, PBS, ABC News, Quartz, and Ms., among other outlets; Razmik Panossian, Director of the Armenian Communities Department at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon and Arevik Ashkharoyan, literary agent who established ARI Literary and Talent Agency, representing a dozen of writers of Armenian origin from all over the world.
To join the event in our library, please email admin@armenianinstitute.org.uk as the places are limited. You can also join us on Zoom.
