Mehregan - Sunday, October 22, 2023
Our annual Mehregan gala will be held on Sunday, October 22, and honor Her Imperial Majesty Farah Pahlavi. The gala will take place in the magnificent Persian garden at Untermyer Gardens and feature sumptuous Persian food, music, poetry, and dancing, with cocktails at 4:30 p.m. and dinner at 6:00 p.m.
The Shabanou will be recognized for her extraordinary efforts to preserve Persian art and culture and share it with an international audience. The evening will culminate in a fire ceremony as the Shabanou dedicates the Persian Pool, which has been restored with the generous support of the Iranian-American
community.
