In the words of the renowned late French-Armenian musician and Armenian champion Charles Aznavour in one of his most adored songs, one “could never forget” the magnificence of the tribute to him in Philadelphia on Saturday, November 16. The event was an inaugural celebration of the Armenian Heritage Walk, a spectacular expanse of public art and gardens soon to flank the world-famous Philadelphia Museum of Art. The evening of exquisite musical performances and French and Armenian delicacies drew more than 100 generous donors to The Philadelphia Club, an historic gathering place of American leaders since 1834.
With a planned unveiling in April 2026 in time for the 250th anniversary of America, the Armenian Heritage Walk is all-at-once an expression of pride in the Armenian-American story, a gesture of thanks to America, and an investment in cultural awareness in the diverse Philadelphia urban art and horticultural region.
