AGMA RELOCATES TO NEW OFFICE NEAR MUSEUM SITE
Washington, DC – In a major step forward, the Armenian Genocide Museum
of America (AGMA) announced that, as of June 1, it has relocated to a
new office adjacent to the future home of the museum and memorial two
blocks from the White House. Since late 2006, the AGMA office had been
located on 19th Street, NW, in Washington, DC.
"This move represents another important milestone in the museum’s
continuing progress over the past two years," said Dr. Rouben Adalian,
AGMA Director. "Being adjacent to the museum building site will
facilitate our efforts to open the museum and memorial under difficult
and challenging circumstances."
Adalian added, "We are also pleased to welcome the offices of the Legate
of the Armenian Apostolic Church, the Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
Representative and the Armenian Assembly of America (Assembly) to the
AGMA office building." The remaining floors will become available for
additional leasing opportunities to other non-profit organizations.
The new mailing address for the AGMA office is: 1334 G Street, NW, Suite
200, Washington, DC 20005. All contact numbers and details for the above
named organizations remain the same.
AGMA telephone and e-mail are: (202) 393-9009; [email protected].
The Legate’s telephone is: (303) 395-5181.
The NKR Representative’s telephone and e-mail are: (202) 223-4330;
[email protected].
The Assembly’s telephone, fax, and e-mail are: (202) 393-3434; (202)
638-4904; [email protected].
The Armenian Genocide Museum of America is an outgrowth of the Armenian
Assembly of America and the Armenian National Institute (ANI), catalyzed
by the initial pledge of Anoush Mathevosian toward building such a
museum in Washington, DC.
