    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Lovers' Park, one of the Armenian capital's
    most beloved public spaces, will host "My Home, Armenia," an
    extraordinary children's art exhibition, this month. The fundraising
    event initiated and sponsored by the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund,
    will be held on Friday, May 15, beginning at 2 PM, at the park's
    sprawling Boghossian Gardens.

    The exhibition and sale will feature the fine-art creations and
    handicrafts of youths from several schools and children's homes. The
    participating institutions include the Mary Izmirlyan Children's
    Home in Yerevan; Our Lady of Armenia Boghossian Educational Center,
    Jean and Albert Boghossian Art School, and Meghvik Youth Center in
    Gyumri and Parakar Art School in Parakar Village, Armavir.

    "The students were thrilled to get involved in the exhibition," said
    Ara Vardanyan, acting executive director of the Hayastan All-Armenian
    Fund. "This is a wonderful opportunity to present to the public the
    artistic creations of our talented, imaginative youths, and to be
    inspired by the warmth and love which they express toward the theme
    of homeland."

    All participating schools and children's homes are past beneficiaries
    of various projects financed through the Hayastan All-Armenian
    Fund. The Lovers' Park itself is the site of a major initiative by
    the fund: an around $1.5 m facelift that was sponsored by Boghossian
    Foundation.

    Proceeds from the "My Home, Armenia" exhibition will benefit the
    participating institutions, helping them meet urgent operational
    needs and improve educational programs.

    The exhibition is sponsored by a number of corporations including
    Printinfo, Negative Studio, Coca-Cola, Achajur, Tashir Pizza, Armenian
    Public Radio, and Hayastani Hanrapetutyun daily. Students of the
    Yerevan State Musical Pedagogical College after A.Babajanyan and
    the Parakar Art School will embellish the event by choral and other
    musical recitals.
