Armenia will participate in the festival “Ancestral origins, pasture lands and culture,” which will take place in the French commune Alboussière in the Ardèche department, located roughly ten kilometers from Valence, one of the Armenian community centers in France.

According to Nouvelles d'Arménie, the festival will be held during the first weeks of June, July and August. The first part will take place on June 3-14. The festival will end on August 16, that day being dedicated to the pastoral culture. The program includes exhibitions, projections, seminars, workshops, concerts and performances. Special evenings dedicated to Armenian cuisine will be held every evening during the summer months.
