Farhang Foundation, a recently established non-profit organization focused on celebrating Iranian art and culture in Southern California, today announced a Nowruz (Persian New Year) Celebration at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).



The two-day event is free to the public and will feature a classical Iranian dance recital by the Djanbazian Dance Company on March 14 in the Bing Theater and a talk on the significance and symbolism of the Nowruz tradition by Professor Amin Banani, UCLA, followed by a musical performance by Namad Ensemble on March 15, taking place in the LA Times Central Courtyard.  The March 14 event requires tickets, which are available at LACMA, based on availability. In addition, the weekend programs will highlight Iranian cultural traditions, including a Nowruz “Haftseen” table.
