We want to thank everyone who joined us at the 12th Nowruz Festival this year. Despite our political and religious differences, we once again gathered to welcome Nowruz in solidarity with our fellow Iranians in the homeland and to showcase our rich culture.

This event would not have been possible without the great support of our talented artists, dedicated volunteers, and wonderful vendors. THANK YOU!

Please stay tuned for photos and videos from the event, and feel free to tag us if you post your own photos and videos. Shohreh Asemi

بارها طوفان‌های سخت از این سرزمین عبور کرده‌اند،
اما ایران
سرزمینی نیست که با طوفان فرو بریزد.
ریشه‌هایش در هزاران سال فرهنگ، خرد و امید
در دل تاریخ تنیده شده است.
و هر بار،
چون سرو استوار
دوباره قامت راست کرده است.

نوروز
یادآور همین پایداری است؛
جشنی که نیاکان ما حتی در سخت‌ترین روزها
آن را از یاد نبردند.
جشن زندگی،
جشن امید،
و جشن دوباره برخاستن…

نوروز
حافظه‌ی مشترک ماست؛
از خانه‌های کوچک روستاها
تا دل شهرهای بزرگ.
از سفره‌های ساده‌ی هفت‌سین
تا دل‌هایی که هنوز
به روشنایی فردا ایمان دارند.

فرهنگ ایران
با همین سنت‌ها زنده مانده
و با همین امید
زنده خواهد ماند.

بهار نزدیک است…
و ما،
فرزندان ایران،
بار دیگر چون جوانه‌های نوروزی
از دل این خاک سبز خواهیم شد
و آزادی را جشن خواهیم گرفت.

در فستیوال نوروز، یکشنبه پانزدهم مارچ، دور هم جمع می‌شویم تا نوروز کهن را پاس بداریم. با همدلی در کنار یکدیگر باشیم و مرهمی باشیم بر حالِ ناآرام این روزهایمان.

امسال برنامهٔ ما تنها صحنه‌ای برای همدلی است؛ از بزن‌وبکوب و شادی خبری نیست. تمام هنر ما همدردی با مردم داغدار سرزمین‌مان است؛ چه هزاران نفری که به دست جمهوری اسلامی جان باختند و چه مردم بی‌گناهی که این روزها در آتش جنگ کشته می‌شوند.

یادمان باشد نوروز همیشه پیام امید می‌دهد؛ آیینی که نوید زنده‌شدن زندگی پس از زمستانی طولانی است.
