For Armenian families living outside Armenia, one of the most important questions is simple:
How can we help our children feel genuinely connected to Armenian culture?
The challenge is real.
A child growing up in Los Angeles, Paris, Toronto, Sydney or Buenos Aires may spend most of the day surrounded by a language and culture different from the one their parents or grandparents grew up with.
At school, they may speak English, French, Spanish or another language.
Online, they may consume mostly global entertainment.
Their Armenian identity may exist mainly inside the home.
Without intentional effort, cultural knowledge can weaken quickly from one generation to the next.
But teaching Armenian culture to children does not have to feel like another school subject.
The most effective approach is usually not:
“You must learn this because you are Armenian.”
It is:
“Come see why this is interesting, beautiful and connected to you.”
Children are more likely to preserve culture when they associate it with:
- family;
- belonging;
- curiosity;
- pride;
- enjoyable experiences.
The goal is not to force children to reproduce exactly the Armenian life of previous generations.
The goal is to give them enough knowledge and emotional connection that they can carry Armenian identity into their own future.
Start With Belonging Before Information
Before children memorize:
- historical dates;
- vocabulary;
- names,
they need to feel that Armenian culture belongs to them.
A child should hear:
“You are part of this story.”
That message is powerful.
Culture becomes personal rather than academic.
Avoid Making Armenian Identity a Test
Children should not constantly feel evaluated.
Questions such as:
“Why don’t you speak Armenian better?”
or:
“Don’t you know this already?”
can create embarrassment.
A better approach is to celebrate progress.
If a child learns one new Armenian word, that is progress.
If they recognize Mount Ararat, that is progress.
If they ask one question about Armenian history, that is progress.
Curiosity is the beginning of cultural connection.
The Home Is the First Armenian Classroom
Parents sometimes believe they need expensive programs or complicated curriculum.
Those can help.
But the most important cultural environment is often the home.
Children learn through ordinary routines.
They notice:
- what music parents play;
- what food grandparents cook;
- what stories families repeat;
- which holidays are celebrated.
These repeated experiences create identity.
Use Armenian Words Every Day
Even families that cannot maintain full Armenian conversation can introduce useful Armenian vocabulary.
Start with words connected to daily life.
Examples may include:
- family terms;
- greetings;
- food names;
- numbers;
Do not wait until children are ready for formal grammar.
Language begins through familiarity.
Short and Repeated Is Better Than Rare and Difficult
Ten minutes every day is often more effective than one long Armenian lesson each month.
Regular repetition helps children remember.
A parent might choose one Armenian phrase for the week.
Use it naturally.
By the end of the year, the child may know dozens of useful expressions.
Do Not Punish Language Mistakes
Children who are mocked for incorrect Armenian may stop speaking.
Correct them gently.
The important first step is willingness to try.
A language survives when people are comfortable using it imperfectly while learning.
Eastern Armenian and Western Armenian
Families should also understand that Armenian has important modern varieties.
These include:
- Eastern Armenian;
- Western Armenian.
Children may hear different pronunciations from:
- grandparents;
- teachers;
Explain that both are Armenian.
Do not turn differences into arguments about which one is “real.”
Teach the Armenian Alphabet Visually
The Armenian alphabet is one of the most distinctive symbols of Armenian culture.
Children can begin by recognizing letters before learning to read full sentences.
Use:
- alphabet posters;
- letter cards;
- magnetic letters;
- digital games.
Start With Their Name
One of the easiest ways to create interest is to show a child how their name looks in Armenian letters.
Suddenly the alphabet becomes personal.
From there, teach names of:
- parents;
- siblings;
Make Armenian Reading Age-Appropriate
Do not give a beginner a difficult historical text.
Start with:
- labels;
- short captions;
- children’s books.
Success creates motivation.
Repeated frustration creates avoidance.
Tell Family Stories
Family history may be one of the strongest tools available.
Children often care more about:
“What happened to our family?”
than:
“What happened in 1375?”
Both are valuable, but personal history creates an emotional entry point.
Ask Grandparents Questions
Encourage children to ask:
Where were you born?
Where were your parents born?
What games did you play?
What Armenian food did you eat?
What language did your grandparents speak?
These questions turn grandparents into living cultural resources.
Record the Conversations
Use a phone to record:
- video;
Add the date and names.
A ten-minute recording can become priceless years later.
Oral history should not be left until “someday.”
Memories disappear when people are no longer here to tell them.
Create a Family Migration Map
Diaspora families often have remarkable migration stories.
A family’s path might look like:
Historic Armenian homeland → Lebanon → Los Angeles
or:
Armenia → Russia → Canada
or:
Iran → United States
Show children these places on a map.
This teaches:
- geography;
- family history;
- diaspora history
at the same time.
Build a Family Tree
Start with:
- child;
- parents;
- grandparents;
- great-grandparents.
Write down:
- names;
- birthplaces;
Do not worry if information is incomplete.
The goal is to begin documenting what is known.
Preserve Armenian Names
Immigration often changed the spelling of Armenian names.
Where possible, record:
- original spelling;
- later spelling.
This may help future generations with genealogy.
Use Old Family Photographs
Children often respond strongly to photographs.
Show them:
- grandparents as children;
- old weddings;
- immigration pictures.
Ask:
“Who is this?”
“What country was this?”
“Why did they move?”
One photograph can lead to an entire history lesson.
Cook Armenian Food Together
Food is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to teach culture.
Children can help prepare dishes such as:
- dolma;
- gata;
- khorovats;
The goal is not culinary perfection.
The goal is participation.
Tell the Story Behind the Dish
While cooking, explain:
Who taught you this recipe?
Was it made for holidays?
Where was the family living?
This turns food into memory.
Create a Family Recipe Book
Each recipe can include:
- ingredients;
- instructions;
- family story.
Add photographs.
Over time, the cookbook becomes a family cultural archive.
Regional Differences Are Important
Do not tell children that one family recipe is the only “real” Armenian version.
Armenian cuisine varies across:
- regions;
- diaspora communities.
A Lebanese-Armenian family may cook differently from a family from Yerevan.
That difference is part of Armenian history.
Use Armenian Music Every Week
Music can create emotional connection even before children understand Armenian lyrics.
Play a mix of:
- folk music;
- sacred music;
- modern Armenian artists.
This prevents Armenian music from feeling like something only grandparents listen to.
Introduce Traditional Instruments
Teach children to recognize:
- duduk;
- zurna;
- dhol;
You can turn this into a listening game.
Play a short sound.
Ask:
“Which Armenian instrument is this?”
Introduce Komitas
Older children should learn about Komitas Vardapet.
Explain that he helped collect and preserve Armenian folk music.
Let them hear one song rather than only reading his biography.
Music should be experienced.
Let Children Discover Modern Armenian Artists
Modern music can be an entry point.
A teenager who enjoys an Armenian pop or rock artist may become more curious about:
- language;
- older music.
Do not assume modern culture weakens tradition.
It can be a bridge toward it.
Armenian Dance
Dance is another powerful tool because it is active.
Children do not need perfect language skills to participate.
Teach simple Armenian group dances.
Kochari is especially useful because it emphasizes:
- rhythm;
- community;
- shared movement.
Attend a Dance Performance
Seeing Armenian dancers in:
- traditional costume;
- synchronized movement
can make cultural heritage visually memorable.
Afterward, ask the child which dance they liked.
Participation begins with interest.
Join a Dance Group
If a local Armenian dance group is available, it can provide:
- instruction;
- friendships;
The social connection may be as important as the dance itself.
Teach Armenian History Through Stories
History can become boring when it is only:
- names;
Children respond better to stories.
Introduce historical characters through:
- challenge;
- adventure;
Mesrop Mashtots
Instead of saying only:
“Mesrop Mashtots created the Armenian alphabet.”
ask:
How could Armenians preserve books if they did not have an alphabet designed for their language?
Now the child sees a problem and a solution.
Tigran the Great
Teach Tigran the Great through a map.
Show how large the Armenian kingdom became during his reign.
Maps help children understand scale.
Gregory the Illuminator
For families teaching Armenian Christian heritage, Gregory the Illuminator can introduce:
- Armenia’s conversion to Christianity;
- Khor Virap;
Show photographs of the sites.
David of Sassoun
The Armenian epic hero David of Sassoun is ideal for children because the story contains:
- courage;
- adventure;
- legendary elements.
Introduce the story through age-appropriate versions.
Why Epic Stories Matter
Epic heroes give children memorable cultural characters.
Many cultures teach identity partly through:
- legends;
Armenian children should know their own cultural stories too.
Teach Armenian Geography
A child may say:
“I am Armenian”
without knowing where Armenia is.
Start with a map.
Show:
- Armenia;
- Yerevan;
- Lake Sevan.
Then add important cultural locations.
Mount Ararat
Explain Mount Ararat’s deep importance in Armenian cultural identity.
Also explain geography accurately: the mountain is currently located in Turkey, while remaining a major Armenian national and cultural symbol.
Accuracy should strengthen cultural education, not weaken it.
Yerevan
Teach children that Yerevan is not only a historic capital.
It is a modern city where people:
- study;
- work;
This prevents Armenia from becoming only an ancient image.
Lake Sevan
Use Lake Sevan to introduce Armenian:
- geography;
- environment;
Culture and nature can be taught together.
Armenian Monasteries
Show photographs of:
- Geghard;
- Tatev;
- Noravank;
- Khor Virap.
Ask children to choose their favorite.
Then learn one fact about it.
Choice increases engagement.
Use Virtual Tours
Families who cannot travel to Armenia can still explore places online.
Use:
- videos;
- 360-degree tours;
- high-quality photographs.
Ask children to identify:
- domes;
- khachkars;
- Armenian inscriptions.
Visit Armenia When Possible
For diaspora children, visiting Armenia can transform identity.
Suddenly Armenia becomes:
- real;
- modern;
They hear Armenian in:
- streets;
They see Armenian letters everywhere.
Do Not Turn the Trip Into a History Marathon
Parents sometimes try to visit:
- every monastery;
- every museum
in one trip.
Children become exhausted.
Balance cultural visits with:
- parks;
- food;
- fun activities.
Positive memories matter.
Let Children Experience Everyday Armenia
Visit:
- markets;
- cafés;
They need to see that Armenian life is not only monasteries and monuments.
Modern Armenia is part of their heritage too.
Armenian Holidays as a Learning Calendar
Holidays create natural opportunities for cultural education.
Use the annual calendar.
You do not have to teach everything at once.
Armenian Christmas
Before January 6, explain:
- why Armenian Christmas is celebrated on this date;
- Nativity and Theophany tradition.
Keep the explanation age-appropriate.
Easter
Use:
- red eggs;
- family meals
to introduce the meaning of Armenian Easter.
Children remember traditions better when they participate.
Vardavar
Children love the water celebration.
Before the fun begins, explain that in the Armenian Church Vardavar is connected with the Transfiguration.
This takes one minute.
That one minute adds meaning to the tradition.
Trndez
Explain the connection with the Presentation of Christ and Armenian fire customs.
If a community celebration includes a bonfire, emphasize safety.
Grape Blessing
Show children grapes before the Feast of the Assumption.
Explain:
- agricultural tradition;
- Christian symbolism.
Culture becomes connected to real objects.
April 24 and the Armenian Genocide
Teaching children about the Armenian Genocide requires care.
It is essential history.
But age matters.
Young children do not need graphic details.
For Younger Children
Begin with:
“Many Armenian families were forced from their homes, and many people were killed. Survivors rebuilt Armenian communities around the world.”
This teaches truth without unnecessary trauma.
For Teenagers
Older students can study:
- survivor testimony;
- historical documentation;
Encourage them to distinguish reliable history from social-media claims.
Armenian Identity Is More Than Genocide
This point is extremely important.
Do not let children learn only:
“We suffered.”
Also teach:
“We created.”
Armenians created:
- architecture;
- music;
- manuscripts;
- literature;
- science;
A healthy identity includes resilience and achievement.
Teach Armenian Art
Children can learn culture visually through:
- illuminated manuscripts;
- khachkars;
- carpets;
- traditional clothing.
Ask them to create their own designs inspired by Armenian patterns.
Armenian Letter Art
The Armenian alphabet is highly visual.
Children can decorate:
- first letter of their name;
- Armenian words.
This combines language and art.
Khachkar-Inspired Art
Show examples of real khachkars.
Explain that they are carved cross-stones.
Children can draw their own pattern on paper.
Be clear that their drawing is inspired by khachkar art rather than an actual sacred monument.
Armenian Carpets
Use Armenian carpet patterns to teach:
- symmetry;
- geometry;
Culture can connect naturally with mathematics.
Taraz
Traditional Armenian clothing, or taraz, can introduce:
- regional identity;
- embroidery;
- historical fashion.
Show different examples rather than implying there was one universal Armenian costume.
Armenian Museums
Visit Armenian museums or cultural exhibitions when available.
Museums make history physical.
Children can see real:
- objects;
- documents;
Create a Home Mini-Museum
Families can display:
- old photographs;
- books;
- cultural objects.
Add simple labels.
Children can help create them.
This gives family objects context.
Armenian Books for Children
Books are essential.
Use age-appropriate material about:
- history;
- folk tales;
Do not insist that every book be written in Armenian.
Translation Is a Bridge
If a child can read only English, give them Armenian cultural stories in English.
Understanding comes first.
Language learning can follow.
A child who cannot access a story learns nothing from it.
Read Together
Even older children may enjoy reading and discussing:
- legends;
Ask:
“What would you have done?”
This turns passive reading into conversation.
Armenian Cartoons and Videos
For younger children, audiovisual content can be extremely effective.
Use age-appropriate:
- cartoons;
- music videos;
- educational clips.
Choose content carefully for quality and accuracy.
Add Subtitles
Subtitles can help children connect spoken Armenian with meaning.
For diaspora audiences, bilingual media can be especially valuable.
Armenian Films for Teenagers
Older children can watch films about:
- Armenian history;
- modern Armenia;
- diaspora life.
Discuss the film afterward.
Ask what felt:
- familiar;
Armenian Churches and Community Centers
Community institutions provide what the home cannot:
other Armenian people.
Children need to see that Armenian identity exists socially.
Attend Community Events
Families can attend:
- festivals;
- concerts;
- lectures;
- Vardavar events.
Choose activities children are likely to enjoy.
Armenian Schools
If possible, consider:
- full-time;
- weekend Armenian education.
But school should complement home culture, not replace it.
Parents remain important.
Armenian Church
For families connected to Armenian Christianity, the Church offers:
- worship;
- history;
- music;
Explain the service to children rather than expecting them to understand automatically.
Secular Families
Families do not have to be religious to teach Armenian culture.
They can focus on:
- history;
- language;
- music;
- community life.
Armenian identity includes people with different beliefs.
Build Armenian Friendships
Parents often focus on curriculum and forget friendship.
Children are far more likely to remain involved in Armenian community life if they have Armenian friends.
Friendship creates motivation.
Invite Armenian Families Home
Simple gatherings matter.
Children play.
Adults talk.
Culture becomes normal daily life instead of a scheduled lesson.
Connect Children Across Cities
If few Armenians live nearby, use technology.
Children can meet Armenian peers through:
- safe supervised online programs;
- cultural classes.
Distance no longer has to mean isolation.
Teach Children About the Armenian Diaspora
A child growing up outside Armenia should understand that they are not alone.
Armenians live in many places.
Show major diaspora centers such as:
- Los Angeles;
- Paris;
- Beirut;
- Buenos Aires;
Use a World Map
Mark Armenian communities.
This teaches a powerful lesson:
Armenian history is both:
- homeland history;
- global history.
Explain Your Local Community
Tell children how Armenians arrived in your city.
Who founded the Armenian school?
When was the church built?
Local history makes diaspora identity tangible.
Visit Historic Armenian Neighborhoods
Where possible, visit areas with visible Armenian heritage.
Look for:
- old churches;
- businesses;
Ask children what has changed.
Armenian Businesses as Cultural Spaces
Visit Armenian:
- bakeries;
- bookstores;
Give the child a small task:
Find three products with Armenian writing.
Everyday life becomes a learning activity.
Teach Through Questions
Instead of always explaining, ask.
Why do you think this church has a conical roof?
Why might Armenians build schools after migrating?
Questions make children active participants.
Do Not Overload Them
One of the biggest mistakes parents make is trying to teach:
- everything;
Culture is lifelong.
One good experience each week can be more valuable than a forced intensive program.
Create an Armenian Culture Routine
A simple family routine might include:
- one Armenian song each week;
- one Armenian meal each month;
- one family-history conversation each month;
- one Armenian cultural outing every few months.
Small repeated habits are sustainable.
Armenian Culture for Ages 0–6
At this age, focus on:
- sounds;
- colors;
- family;
Use:
- songs;
- simple words;
- cartoons;
- picture books.
The main goal is positive familiarity.
What 0–6 Children Should Learn
They can begin recognizing:
- Armenian flag;
- Armenia on a map;
- Armenian alphabet.
Keep everything short and visual.
Armenian Culture for Ages 6–14
Children in this group can begin structured cultural learning.
Teach:
- alphabet;
- basic history;
- geography;
Projects work especially well.
Ideas for Ages 6–14
Create:
- Armenia map;
- family tree;
- Armenian recipe page;
- khachkar art project.
Learning should produce something they can show.
Armenian Culture for Ages 14–22
Teenagers and young adults require a different strategy.
Do not treat them like small children.
They need deeper discussions about:
- identity;
- diaspora;
- modern Armenia;
Give Teenagers Choice
Allow them to choose a topic:
- music;
- technology;
- history;
- film;
Connect Armenian culture to what they already care about.
Career Connections
A teenager interested in engineering might research Armenian:
- scientists;
Someone interested in film can explore Armenian filmmakers.
Heritage should connect with the future.
Mentorship
Connect youth with Armenian professionals.
A mentor can provide both:
- career guidance;
- cultural connection.
This helps Armenian identity become relevant in adulthood.
Volunteer Opportunities
Teenagers can volunteer at:
- festivals;
- cultural organizations;
- humanitarian projects.
Service turns identity into action.
Let Youth Create Content
Instead of only consuming Armenian culture, let them create:
- videos;
- podcasts;
Ask them to explain one cultural topic to their own generation.
Teaching strengthens learning.
Social Media Can Help
Parents sometimes see social media only as a threat.
It can also support Armenian education.
Follow reliable Armenian:
- museums;
- cultural institutions;
A well-made 60-second video can spark interest in a topic that later becomes deeper learning.
Verify Online Information
Young people should learn digital literacy.
Ask:
Who created this post?
What source does it use?
Not every viral Armenian-history claim is accurate.
Cultural pride should be evidence-based.
AI as an Educational Tool
AI can help families create:
- quizzes;
- vocabulary practice;
- simplified history explanations.
But AI can make mistakes.
Historical facts should be checked against reliable sources.
AI Translation
AI may help translate family material.
However, older Armenian handwriting and dialects can be difficult.
Important documents should be verified by knowledgeable human speakers when possible.
Use Technology to Preserve Family Heritage
Create organized digital folders for:
- photos;
- interviews;
- recipes;
Use filenames such as:
Grandmother-Anahid-Beirut-1974.jpg
instead of:
IMG1234.jpg
Future generations will understand the archive.
Create a Digital Family Timeline
Add:
- births;
- migrations;
- important events.
This helps children see how their family story fits broader Armenian history.
Avoid Guilt-Based Armenian Education
Statements such as:
“Our ancestors suffered, so you must learn Armenian”
may create obligation but not love.
Historical sacrifice should be respected.
But children also need positive reasons to connect.
Use Pride Carefully
Healthy pride means:
“I value my heritage.”
It should not become:
“My culture is better than everyone else’s.”
Teach children cultural confidence together with respect for other peoples.
Encourage Questions About Difficult Topics
Children may ask:
Why is Mount Ararat outside Armenia?
Why are there so many Armenians abroad?
Why do some Armenians speak different Armenian?
Answer honestly and at the appropriate age level.
Questions should never be punished.
Teach Complexity
As children mature, explain that history is often complicated.
Not every tradition has one simple origin.
Not every historical debate has one easy answer.
Learning nuance builds stronger knowledge.
Avoid Myths Presented as Facts
Armenian cultural education should distinguish:
- historical evidence;
- tradition;
For example, a story can be deeply meaningful even when it belongs partly to folklore.
Labeling it correctly does not reduce its value.
Encourage Research
Older students can learn to compare sources.
Give them a question such as:
“How did Armenian communities develop in Los Angeles?”
Let them investigate.
Research skills make them independent learners.
Give Children Access to Zmruxt Content
A platform like Zmruxt can organize Armenian culture into age-friendly learning paths.
For younger children:
- videos;
- songs;
- simple stories.
For ages 6–14:
- history;
- identity;
For teens:
- careers;
- opportunities;
- global Armenian connections.
Create a “My Armenian Journey” Path
Children could progress through themes such as:
- My Family
- My Language
- My History
- My Culture
- My Future
This makes Armenian learning personal and structured.
Use Quizzes
Quizzes can make learning fun.
Examples:
“What Armenian Instrument Is This?”
“Can You Recognize These Armenian Letters?”
“What Do You Know About Armenian History?”
Keep competition friendly.
Digital Badges
Children could earn badges for completing cultural topics such as:
- Armenian Alphabet;
- Armenian Food Explorer;
- Armenian History Explorer.
Recognition can encourage continued learning.
Parent Resources
Parents also need help.
Many diaspora parents want to teach Armenian culture but do not know where to begin.
Provide simple downloadable guides such as:
10 Armenian Activities to Do With Your Child This Month
Practical tools increase participation.
Grandparent Resources
Grandparents can receive interview-question cards.
Examples:
“Tell me about your childhood.”
“What holiday did you love?”
This turns oral history into a structured family activity.
Connect Families Globally
Digital platforms can help diaspora children realize that Armenian youth live around the world.
A supervised global cultural exchange could connect children from:
- United States;
- France;
- Armenia;
They could share:
- favorite food;
- school experience;
- family traditions.
Safety Must Come First
Online programs involving children require:
- parental supervision;
- appropriate moderation;
- privacy protection.
Cultural connection should never compromise child safety.
Measure Progress Differently
Do not judge success only by:
“Can my child speak Armenian fluently?”
Also ask:
Can they locate Armenia?
Do they know family history?
Do they recognize Armenian music?
Do they feel positively about being Armenian?
These are meaningful outcomes.
The Long-Term Goal
The goal is to help a child reach adulthood able to say:
“I know where I come from, and I want to stay connected.”
That is stronger than forced memorization.
Frequently Asked Questions About Teaching Armenian Culture to Children
How can I teach Armenian culture to my child if we live outside Armenia?
Use everyday language, family stories, Armenian food, music, holidays, books, community events and age-appropriate history. Regular small experiences are more effective than occasional intensive lessons.
What if my child does not speak Armenian?
Begin without shame. Introduce simple words and phrases while continuing cultural education in the language your child understands best.
Should children learn Eastern or Western Armenian?
Teach the variety used by your family or school while explaining that both Eastern and Western Armenian are valuable parts of Armenian heritage.
At what age should children learn Armenian history?
Start early with simple stories, symbols and geography. Introduce more complex political and historical topics gradually as children mature.
How should parents teach children about the Armenian Genocide?
Use age-appropriate language. Young children can learn about displacement and survival without graphic details, while teenagers can study historical evidence and survivor testimony in greater depth.
How can I make Armenian culture interesting instead of feeling like homework?
Use food, music, family interviews, maps, travel, games, videos and hands-on projects. Connect Armenian culture with the child’s existing interests.
Is visiting Armenia important for diaspora children?
It can be very powerful, but it is not the only way to build identity. Families unable to travel can use virtual tours, videos, books and local Armenian community experiences.
Can non-Armenian-speaking parents still teach Armenian heritage?
Yes. Parents can learn alongside their children, use translated resources, attend community events and invite grandparents or teachers to participate.
What is the best role for grandparents?
Grandparents can share family stories, language, recipes and memories. Recording these conversations is one of the most valuable cultural-preservation activities a family can do.
How do I keep teenagers interested in Armenian culture?
Connect heritage with their interests, friendships and future. Offer music, travel, mentorship, volunteering, career networks and opportunities to create their own Armenian-related projects.
Conclusion
Teaching Armenian culture to children growing up abroad is not about recreating the past perfectly.
It is about creating continuity.
Children need enough exposure to understand:
- who they are;
- where their family came from;
- why Armenian culture matters.
That knowledge does not come from one lesson.
It develops through hundreds of small experiences.
A song in the car.
A grandmother’s story.
A red Easter egg.
A visit to an Armenian bakery.
A family tree.
A first trip to Armenia.
Each experience adds another piece.
The strongest cultural education combines:
- knowledge;
- emotion;
Children should learn Armenian history, but they should also enjoy Armenian music.
They should know about the Genocide, but they should also know about Armenian creativity and achievement.
They should be encouraged to learn Armenian, but never made to feel excluded because they are still learning.
Above all, they should understand that Armenian culture is not only something their ancestors created.
It is something they now have the opportunity to carry forward.
The next generation does not need to become a copy of the previous one.
It needs enough connection, confidence and knowledge to create its own Armenian future.
That is how culture remains alive.
