A wall-hanging created by Rockport artist Ann Goolkasian O'Donnell
will be displayed at the Statehouse tomorrow from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
as part of the annual Armenian Genocide Commemoration.
O'Donnell's mixed media collage, "Why Do You Care About Something
That Happened 90 Years Ago?" includes actual pages from the journal
of her grandfather, who survived the genocide but lost his entire
family.
Still unacknowledged by the Turkish government, the Armenian genocide
is recognized by survivors and their kin in this annual ceremony,
hosted by state Rep. Rachel Kaprielian, Rep. Peter Koutoujian and
Sen. Steven Tolman.
