in Turkey's Diyarbakir Province has been turned into a workshop.
The Armenian church, which was restored by Turkey's Directorate General
of Foundations, began functioning as Women's Education Center, Vatan

silversmithery and silk-making.
This program's director, Bilgin Yigit, noted they are attempting to
re-establish the arts and crafts of the Armenians and Syriacs who
