Armenian culture showcased through Artsakh songs at international festival in Italy

Italy is currently hosting the International Folklore Festival from July 30 to August 16, featuring artistic ensembles affiliated with the “Center for the Preservation of Artsakh Culture” NGO.

So far, a variety of notable events have been held within the framework of the festival, including the Holy Liturgy at the church of Santa Scolastica, a parade through the historic Old Town, the Miss and Mister Festival contest, and a study visit to Isola del Liri—known for its medieval center and unique city waterfall.

Armenian culture is represented at the festival through Artsakh songs, national dances, and traditional costumes. The Armenian participants have received a warm welcome from both the audience and delegations from various countries.

This festival is not only a celebration of art but also a unique platform for cultural dialogue, friendship among nations, and preservation of national identity.
