Social

Social life is essential in the Persian community. The people we meet and the traditions shared restore our feeling of being valued and appreciated. This can come through performances of Persian arts, or in the lively surroundings of spice-scented restaurants saturated with boisterous conversations. These places and people are waiting for you. Go whenever you feel the urge. And enjoy.

Social Strides

The things we do as individuals are multiplied when we get together with others. Whether it is with friends or with a romantic interest, they make us better than we would have been. Shared traditions and experiences can make the bonding easy and natural. And fortunately there are many places where we can expand those circles of friendship which can lead to longer relationships. Trying new places opens up avenues for us that we might not otherwise have experienced. So pick one and go. See who is there to be discovered.
