PAST: PANEL: "Azerbaijan’s Contribution to the World of Oriental Carpets" SAT, May 7th 6:30pm - 8:30pm, Free, Please RSVP

"Azerbaijan’s Contribution to the World of Oriental Carpets"
Saturday, May 7th
6:30pm – 8:30pm
Free, RSVP
All Ages

This seems like a pretty interesting discussion of an uncommon topic. The Karabakh Foundation is hosting a panel tonight about Azerbaijan carpet-making traditions. They will also address why “Azerbaijani carpets” is not a common term, even though a significant percentage of carpets throughout the world are made in Azerbaijan. Panelists include a research fellow from George Mason University, an Azerbaijani carpet maker, and an oriental rugs deal.
