Beginning in 2006, the Burbank chapter of the Armenian National

businesses and civic leaders for their commitment to community
service, political activism and raising awareness of the issues
important to the Armenian-American community on international,
national, local and grassroots levels.

city council member Jack Hadjinian, included a performance by the
Lilia Dance Studio under the direction of Lilia Margaryan and an
