Fall for Iran: Gala Night

Beyond Persia is a self funded, self sustaining non-profit organization dedicated to the exposure of contemporary Persian culture, outside the borders of Iran. In our short tenure, we have had the great pleasure of promoting an impressive coterie of Iranian artists, filmmakers and musicians by putting on significant Art Exhibits at high profile galleries and theaters, like Gallery One, Sundance Theaters, the Palace of Fine Arts, and concerts at best of breed venues across the US, and soon, internationally. We are proud to have exposed the work of over 100 emerging Iranian artists, and to have produced the first Iranian Rock concert in the world, at the legendary Great American Music Hall in SF, for Kiosks (world premier) who co-headlined with the Abjeez, an amazing girl band from Iran, by way of Sweden. See their video. Our recent sold-out Concert, Solh-Fest, was a fundraiser for peace (Agape Foundation) in which we introduced Piano virtuoso Arjang Rad, and traditional crooner, Hamed Nikpay to the world at large. For a more comprehensive list of our family of artists and clients, please visit our site. With your encouragement, we look forward to forging ahead with this imprortant mission designed to foster cross cultural understanding via the arts.
