About this Event

“Iran, Our Nurturing Mother” is an event dedicated to Iran on Mother’s Day—
a gathering for all members of the family to come together.

This program is a blend of music, storytelling of ancient Iranian tales, and animated screenings inspired by these stories. On this special day, the event reflects on the motherland—our homeland that has shaped generations through its culture, stories, and enduring spirit.

The program unfolds through ten interconnected performances, combining music, song, and visual storytelling in a rich audiovisual experience. Through the stories of the guardians and protectors of our homeland—embodied in historical and mythological figures—these performances bring to life a living epic and cultural legacy.

By weaving together art and reflection, this event invites audiences of all ages to honor the beauty, resilience, and depth of a land that has remained steadfast and inspiring, even in times of hardship—and will continue to do so.


*The program is open to children 5 and above.
