    LONDON - The Tekeyan Cultural Association London Chapter was
    established in 1975 and is affiliated with the Tekeyan Trust, a
    registered charity in the UK. Like its parent organization, it is
    dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Armenian cultural
    identity and to furthering links between the Armenian Diaspora and
    Armenia.

    In its early years, the TCA London organized numerous cultural events
    including performances by the Armenian State Dance Company in Sadler's
    Wells, the Armenian State Folk Song and Dance Company at the Royal
    Albert Hall, the Armenian State Choir.

    The TCA London Chapter has revitalized this year to further its
    mission - to promote Armenian culture by organizing public events,
    cultural exhibitions, lectures, workshops, etc.

    In order to reintroduce the TCA London, an official dinner reception
    was held in March. It celebrated the new beginning of the major
    cultural organization with the newly-appointed President Vartan
    Ouzounian, Chairman Hratch Kouyoumjian and the new Executive Committee:
    Sevag Arevian, Sossi Yeretzian (secretary), Garen Arevian (treasurer),
    Gayaneh Cherchian, Dal

    ila Heath, Violetta Kaydan-Barzankian, and coop member Anita Manoukyan,
    as well as supporter Rosette Ouzounian, who contributes greatly to
    the realization of the TCA London functions.

    The exhibition of 45 contemporary paintings by 25 well-known Armenian
    artists was the first major cultural event organized by the TCA London
    after its rebirth. The range of cultural event was continued with
    the performances by the 50-strong, award-winning and internationally
    renowned Sahak-Mesrop Armenian Choir of Marseille. The TCA London
    is planning a number of cultural and social projects involving
    younger generation, among them is the New Year Eve Dinner Dance in
    collaboration with Nor Serount Association in London.
