Dear Friends of the House of Lebanon,   

 

I love August!  College football polls come out and even though you still feel the heat of summer, you know that it's the beginning of the end of the year and the beginning of all the festivities that take place in September through December.

 

Please pay close attention to our next few newsletters and we promise some new and exiting things for the House of Lebanon.  For now, please mark the 2nd annual Beyond Borders Art Exhibiton and the Pride of Heritage Banquet on your calendars.   

 

Best Wishes from Our House to Yours,

Karen Srour

Executive Director   

A Message from
Honorable James Kaddo

Dear Friends,

 

For those who did not attend the Caracalla function at UCLA's Royce Hall, you missed a spectacular presentation of dazzling costumes, great choreography and an enjoyable blending of art, culture and theatrics. We look forward to our talented HOL Artists' Group's Art Exhibition this fall and viewing their extraordinary blend of talent using the elements of earth, wind, fire and water.  I will be thinking about you while in Lebanon for the summer.  I will return Sept. 6 or thereabouts and will also miss all of you.  Best to you and your families.

 

Judge James Kaddo

Dear Friends,

 

The House of Lebanon Artists' Group was established in 2006, with a small group of artists who had a passion to share their visions, ideas and talents through their work. This year, we are proud to celebrate their 5th year anniversary. The group has grown to 56 members, many of whom will be participating in this year's Beyond Borders Art Exhibition. Last year's show was a great success and we had an opportunity to see our community of artists share their art, music, film and dramatic talents with us. We hope you will attend and share the experience this year.

Meet New HOL Artist Jehan Mansy

 

I recently moved to Los Angeles from Ohio for work.  I am in Academic Publishing.  I've been a writer since a child and have developed my craft over the years.  I fell in love with the literary world because it allows you to feel connected; with yourself, with others and with the world.

 

 

Meet New HOL Artist Raffi Zaroukian Zaroukian sculpture

 

Raffi's passion for Art and Architecture started from an early age in the Studio of his father. There, he discovered learning drawing of shapes, forms and human anatomy by experimenting with his father's tools and media. 

  

 Raffi studied Art and Architecture at the "Academie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts". He earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree from "Universite de Montreal" in Canada.  Raffi has been participating in group and private exhibitions in Canada and the US. He currently works as an Architect and Sculptor integrating organic forms into his designs. His sculptures and paintings of the human figure express movement, grace and beauty. His work is a representation of figure as an embodiment of spirit. The medium of choice for his sculptures is wood, which he cherishes for its organic beauty and warmth.
