“We are glad and fortunate to be able to appoint such a talent to fill our vacant post of executive director in Watertown, and we are looking forward to work with Mr. Arkun to fulfill and advance our cultural and educational programs in the United States, Canada, and Armenia,” said Dr. Haroutiun Arzoumanian, president of the TCA Central Board of Directors.

“The work the Tekeyan Cultural Association carries out in the promotion of Armenian culture is significant,” Arkun said. “Organizations like Tekeyan are especially necessary in the diaspora to provide a gathering place and forum for writers, readers, and all those interested in Armenian creative expression. I hope to be able to help the organization expand its cultural activities and to continue its fine tradition of supporting Armenian schools. I also am very happy to be able to contribute to the Armenian Mirror-Spectator,” he said. “I look forward to working with Tekeyan members and others in the Armenian community, and hearing their ideas about future activities.”

Arkun, a respected scholar, has a master of arts degree in international relations from the University of Pennsylvania, among many other higher education diplomas. He has served as editor-in-chief of “Ararat” quarterly; assistant director of the Krikor and Clara Zohrab Information Center, Armenian Diocese; and adjunct assistant professor at New York University. In addition to English, Arkun speaks classical and modern Armenian, French, Ottoman and modern Turkish, and some Persian, Russian, German, and Arabic.

Tekeyan Cultural Association, Inc. is a non-profit and tax exempt cultural and educational organization founded in 1969 in Massachusetts. It has many chapters throughout the United States and Canada, owns the Arshag Dickranian Day school in Los Angeles, cultural centers in Altadena, Calif., and Montreal, Canada, as well as rented facilities as cultural centers in Englewood Cliffs, N.J., and Toronto, Canada. The association publishes the trilingual weekly newspaper “Abaka” in Montreal, sponsors teachers in five TCA schools in Armenia and Karabagh through its “Sponsor a Teacher” program, and publishes many literary books in Armenian and in English.
