The U.S. Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation will invest $166,000 to protect the work of Armenian-American artist Khoren Der-Harootian. Since 2005, the fund has provided over $1.8 million for 16 projects that preserve Armenia’s culture and heritage, U.S. Embassy in Yerevan reported.
Public Affairs Officer Griffin Rozell joined Deputy Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sports Alfred Kocharyan and National Gallery of Armenia Director Marina Hakobyan to launch the project. Together with the Government of Armenia, we will renovate the Khoren Der-Harootian Memorial Museum in Vagharshapat. The work will give its 261 artworks the protection and display they deserve.
