    An art exhibition of artists from Armenia was held last week end
    (April 2-4) in the Marie Manoogian Hall of the St-Gregory the
    Illuminator Armenian Apostolic Cathedral in Outremont.

    The event, which was the first of a series of events on the occasion
    of the 20th Anniversary of the establishment of the Armenian Holy
    Apostolic Church Canadian Diocese, was under the auspices of the
    Primate of the Diocese, His Eminence Bishop Bagrat Galstanian.

    The exhibition was a joint organization of the Parish Council of the
    St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Apostolic Cathedral , "Momik"
    Armenian Centre (Armenia) and "Armenian Art" magazine (Armenia). There
    were more than 70 paintings exhibited which were works of several
    Armenian artists of Armenia and some hand made craft.

    The president of the Parish Council Mr Megerduitch Kanondjian opened
    the Vernissage, welcoming the hundreds of people who came to
    contemplate the works, then he introduced the guests Mr. Karen
    Matevossian, President of the "Momik" centre and the chief-editor of
    the Armenian Art" magazine, and Mrs. Hasmik Ginoyan, the director of
    the Centre. Then Mr. Kanondjian invited Very Rev. Father Ararat
    Kaltakjian to deliver the evening's message to the art loving people
    present. The Pastor of the Cathedral Rev. Father Vazgen Boyajyan read
    the Primate's message to the guests. At the end Mr. Matevossian
    thanked the Primate, the Parish Council and the organizing committee
    members.

    The exhibition will be transferred to Vancouver for the next week end
    and then will move to Toronto.
