Cordoba Hosts Third Annual Inter-provincial Festival
AGBU Cordoba held its 3rd annual Armenian Inter-provincial Festival,
organized by the "Liga de Jovenes" (Youth League), at the AGBU center on
March 3, 2007. This event gathered together the far-flung members of the
Argentinean Armenian community. Representatives from Buenos Aires,
Corrientes, Mar del Plata, Misiones, Neuquen, and Rosario attended the
event.
During the festival, the participating youth spent the full day engaged
in various sports, including basketball, volleyball and soccer. They
built a sense of camaraderie and worked to build social connections
between communities that are geographically distant from one another.
As part of the large gathering, an evening of music featured three local
bands, Dzirani, "el Erepuni", and the Sergio Giovoglanian Band, that
performed an array of Armenian music.
The Festival succeeded in its objective of promoting Armenian culture,
forming new ties and friendships, and strengthening relationships among
Argentinean Armenians.
To conclude the festival, community representatives met the following
day to share their experiences, ideas, and projects with one another and
later attended a farewell lunch held at the city's AGBU center.
