About the Event

Abril Bookstore is celebrating its 30th anniversary!  In commemoration of this event, we are proud to present “Abrink: Celebration of Armenian Literature and Culture.” 

We have invited prominent authors, artists, professors, performers, and scholars from the Armenian community to share their knowledge and talents with you.  Come and enjoy a weekend of Armenian literature, art, music, theater, film, and dance in the heart of the Armenian community.  We will have storytelling and play reading segments, Armenian dance and miniature art workshops, author panel discussions, scholarly lectures, film screenings, and theatrical and musical performances.  You are welcome to spend a day, two days, a couple of hours, or attend any combination of segments that appeal to your palette.  We guarantee that you will leave enlightened with a well-rounded knowledge of the splendor of the Armenian heritage.   

Refreshments and snacks will be offered throughout the weekend.  Bring a notebook, a pen, and a healthy appetite and mind to soak in all the culture we will offer. 

Segments will be held either in English, Armenian or both.  We have noted the language for each segment in the schedule. The schedule is subject to change.  Please check with our website from time to time for any updates or changes that have been made. 

ENJOY THE FESTIVAL AND THANK YOU FOR CELEBRATING OUR 30th ANNIVERSARY WITH US!
