The Andisheh Center would like to invite you to its Portland Persian Party. Beaverton Mayor Denny Doyle as well as a representative from Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler’s office will commence the festivities with welcoming remarks.
We’ve planned a colorful celebration of Persian music, dance, art and cuisine. This event will bring the festive atmosphere of typical Persian parties to our beloved Portland “living room,” so that the public can participate. During the evening we’ll enjoy live Persian music by Mehdi Bagheri and the Daneshvar Family Ensemble as well as dance performances from various ethnic cultures in Iran, including Gilaki, Azari, Kurdish, Lori and Bakhtiari. We will also showcase traditional teahouse culture with tea and sweets plus present a beautiful Persian garden.
We would love to have you join us and bring your family and friends to this memorable community event. There will be Persian food for sale, provided by Pasha Restaurant.
For the past 20 years, Andisheh Center has been proudly celebrating and promoting Iranian culture, heritage and the arts, while serving as a bridge to the broader community. Your interests and activities have always been at the heart of our mission. Please support us by inviting your family and friends to what is going to be an incredible celebration.
