NUFDI is proud to announce Iran Rising, an exhibit of Iranian protest art curated and designed by a team of all-women Iranian-American designers and artists.
Free and open to the public on Saturday November 19th and Sunday November 20th, Iran Rising will highlight the courage and resilience of the Iranian people in a one-of-a-kind, interactive gallery exhibition as we aim to amplify the voices of the Iranian people and support their democratic movement.
Join us on Saturday November 19th and Sunday November 20th with your friends and family, especially non-Iranians, as we look to share the Iranian people’s story through the creativity and ingenuity of up-and-coming Iranian artists and designers.
“Woman. Life. Freedom.” “Man. Motherland. Prosperity.” “We will fight, we will die, we will take our country back.”
As Iranian-Americans, we are inspired by the Iranian people’s courage and resolve, and particularly by the young Iranian women and men leading their protests. We are moved by the ideals of equality and freedom at the heart of their struggle. And we are dedicated to supporting them by amplifying their collective voice.
To show how a new generation of Iranians stands to reclaim Iran from the Islamic Republic, we are honored to host an exhibition of Iranian protest-related art, drawn directly from the Iranian people’s revolutionary movement and presented by an all-female team of Iranian-American designers and artists. This exhibition will show Iran Rising: the story of an entire nation’s hope, resilience, unity, and courage in the face of an evil regime that has stolen their country but will not be allowed to steal their dreams.
