  • Sunday, April 16 (Rain Date April 23), 7:30 am – Annual Reconfiguration of the Abstract Sculpture at the Armenian Heritage Park

    Beginning at 7am on April 16, a crane will lift, pull apart and reconfigure the two halves of the Abstract Sculpture, made of steel and aluminum, to create a new sculptural shape, at the Armenian Heritage Park on the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway in Boston. The annual reconfiguration is symbolic of all who pulled away or were forced to pull away from their country of origin and came to these Massachusetts shores, establishing themselves in new and different ways. Supported by the Park’s Endowed Fund for the Annual Reconfiguration of the Abstract Sculpture, a gift of Charles and Doreen Bilezikian. For more information email hello@ArmenianHeritagePark.org

  • Sunday, September 21, 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm – Sunday Afternoon at the Armenian Heritage Park

    Join the Friends of the Armenian Heritage Park on Sunday, September 21 from 3 – 4 for a meet and greet for all ages.  The Park is located on the Rose Kennedy Greenway, between Faneuil Hall Marketplace and Christopher Columbus Park.  Emack & Bolio’s will be there, thanks to E & M’s Stewart Kagel, and there will be live music courtesy of Mal Barsamian on oud, Leo Janikian on clarinet, Kenny Kalajian on guitar, and Jay Baronian on dumbeg. Mal Barsamian is one of the most gifted Armenian-American musicians working today. His wealth of musical knowledge extends to classical as well as Middle Eastern music.  Barsamian performs on bouzouki, oud, clarinet, guitar, violin, and dumbeg. He has the same vitality on the instruments as he does on his most well-known instrument, the clarinet. At 2:30 there will be a game for kids with a chance to win Boston Duck Tour tickets for four, with the help of Boston Duck Tour’s Bob Schwartz.  Bob Lobel, co-host of Sports Legends New England, will act as Emcee.  Come early to walk the Greenway, ride the carousel, visit Christopher Columbus Park, the North End, Faneuil Hall Marketplace, and the Waterfront.  If you have any questions, email info@armenianheritagepark.org.
