GLENDALE — The Armenian American Museum will host a community forum on Sunday, January 17, 2016, 2 PM, at the St. Gregory Armenian Catholic Church’s Raymond and Ani Kouyoumjian Hall: 1510 East Mountain Street, Glendale, CA 91207. The event will provide a presentation on the mission of the Armenian American Museum, give an overview on the current status of the project, and provide an opportunity for community-driven feedback.
This will mark the third public forum the Armenian American Museum has hosted as a part of its community outreach program. In January of 2016, presentations were held at the Glendale Kiwanis Club, in addition to two community forums which hosted strong attendance from local residents. The organization will continue to meet with a broad range of stakeholder groups and extend outreach efforts in smaller group settings to share the vision for the Museum. All community members and residents are encouraged to attend the upcoming forum and share their perspective on the project.
