Parisa Projects, based in San Diego with strong ties to the Tehran art scene, plays a pivotal role in supporting Middle Eastern artists and fostering overseas talent within the USA art scene. Through a plethora of initiatives, including open art shows, workshops, and community events, the organization actively cultivates connections and dialogue among artists and enthusiasts. Their efforts extend to curating a diverse collection of Middle Eastern artworks, highlighting the brilliance of talents ranging from Abbas Nasle Shamloo to Zaam Arif.
In addition to their California engagement, Parisa Projects positions itself at the forefront of the contemporary art landscape. Collaborating with institutions such as the California Center for the Arts, we endeavor to introduce Middle Eastern art to new audiences through innovative platforms like pop-up exhibitions.
Beyond showcasing artworks, Parisa Projects is committed to educational outreach, striving to deepen the community's understanding and appreciation of Middle Eastern art. Through various educational programs and initiatives, Parisa Projects aims to foster a more inclusive and informed art community, furthering cultural exchange and appreciation. As a nonprofit organization, Parisa Projects is also a key supporter of the Khor Art initiative, collaborating with SARAI Gallery to advance its mission.
