Armenian culture is one of the main pillars of our national identity and the main guarantee for the longevity of the Armenian nation. The preservation of the national consciousness, the recognition and promotion of our cultural, spiritual and intellectual values beyond the borders of our Homeland are the basis of the Hamazkayin Armenian Cultural and Educational Society’s concept. Almost one century the dedicated and unwearied members of the Society have been carrying out this mission in different parts of the world, bringing the communities together around our native culture.
For the same purpose, the West American Regional Executive Board of the Armenian Cultural and Educational Society initiated an exceptional exhibition of the Armenian classic and contemporary artists, in November 14-16, in Glendale. The "Hovig Art" Gallery founder, artist Hovig Kochinian responded and joined the Hamazkayin’s initiative, exposing his collection consisting of about fifty artists, presenting three generations of Armenian artists and painters.
