And with that, our Novruz celebrations have finally come to an end! Azerbaijani Society of New England participated in three amazing events, making it our busiest Novruz season to date! It was our 3rd time showcasing Azerbaijani Novruz culture at the annual celebration at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, which drew a whopping 2,500 attendees in a single day, making it MFA's most popular event of the year! Special thanks to Naoko Takayanagi, Executive Director of Japan Society of Boston and our fellow Institute for Nonprofit Practice fellow, for stopping by and saying hello! ❤️🎉
ASNE also participated in Novruz festivities with our sister organization Azerbaijan Society of Maine in Maine, with representatives of over 10 diverse communities. Special thanks to our community elder Tarlan Ahmadov for putting together yet another amazing event!
We were also honored to help Azerbaijani students at the Novruz celebration at Harvard University. Over 10 diverse communities showcased their unique traditions and love of Novruz. We are grateful for all of our staff that helped make these three events a success and even more grateful to all those that attended one (or two or even all three!) events and helped showcase our Azerbaijani heritage to the greater Boston, Cambridge, and Maine communities. 'Til next year!
