Dear John,
It’s Ruby Dehkharghani, NIAC DC Metro Area Leadership Councilmember and one of NIAC’s 40/40 honorees [[link removed]] ! As you know, NIAC has been hosting Open Mics every month--and I've been so awed by the amazing artists, singers, writers, and poets that have graced us with their talents.
That's why I'm so excited that NIAC DC Metro Area Chapter will be hosting the next Open Mic night on Thursday, October 28th at 4pm PT/7pm ET. [[link removed]]
The Open Mic will feature acclaimed poet, Peabody Award winner, and the Roshan Chair of Persian Studies at the University of Maryland, Dr. Fatemeh Keshavarz . Dr Keshavarz will kick off the event with a discussion about the significance of classical Persian poetry in the everyday lives of Iranian Americans.
