The Hamazkayin Armenian Educational and Cultural Society Eastern Region was founded in Cairo on May 28, 1928. We aim to empower our chapters and membership to nurture and promote Armenian arts and culture. Given our millennia long history, we are cognizant of the dynamic nature of the concept of identity. To that end, we strive to maintain our cultural identity and heritage and are committed to grow and further the contribution of the Armenian culture to the complex tapestry of world civilizations.
