/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In a recent session held in Yerevan, the Trustee
Board of One Nation, One Culture fund discussed issues concerning
the IV Armenian International Festival to be held in Yerevan in
2010. Participants decided to schedule the event for late July,
2010, said Tamara Poghosyan, Chair of Trustee Board. "Early in July,
Yerevan hosts Golden Apricot International Film Festival, so we find
that One Nation, One Culture will form its organic continuation/"

As noted by creative director Armen Manukyan, festival should first
of all serve a bridge between Armenia and Diaspora. "It would be
advisable for the festival to have its anthem," he said.

One Nation, One Culture festival aims to assist in the development and
preservation of Armenian culture and cultural identity in Diaspora,
establishment of ties between Armenian and Diaspora-Armenian artists,
extension of intercultural ties and development of contemporary
Armenian art.
