Welcome To The Association of Friends of Persian Culture
In 1991, the National Spiritual Assembly
of the Baha’is of the
United
States
(the governing body of the Baha’is in this country) established
an entity devoted to the promotion of Persian arts and culture. Later, this entity
was named “Association of the Friends of Persian Culture”.
The main objectives of the Association are:

contact with, and gain a deeper understanding of the cultural, artistic and literary
heritage of
Iran

Encouraging children, youth and young adults
of Iranian descent living abroad to familiarize themselves with, and gain a deeper
appreciation of Persian art, literature and culture
·
Helping English speaking relatives and friends
of Iranians as well as the general public gain an appreciation of Persian culture
·
Promoting systematic and comprehensive study
of Persian arts and culture
