/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The sixth Annual Ararat Center Festival, scheduled
for Saturday, July 11 in upstate New York, will focus celebrations
on the facility mortgage burning that took place earlier in the year.
The Ararat Center, purchased by the Eastern Diocese in January 2004,
is now the permanent home of the St. Vartan Camp program as well
as many other Armenian-affiliated and nonaffiliated organizations
and associations that have discovered this facility's many benefits
and beauty.
Over the past five years, hundreds of people have attended this
traditional Armenian-styled picnic held on the scenic grounds of the
Ararat Center. This year will be no exception as more than 500 people
are anticipated to participate in this annual event which will feature
Armenian music by a special assembled Festival Ensemble, entertainment
by the Sipan Dance Group of the Capital District, delicious food and
fun for young children. In addition, this year's Festival will once
again showcase a variety of vendors selling Armenian jewelry, photos,
books, CDs, perfumes and more.
