- Starting off the night, Richard Jeffrey Newman reads from The Teller of Tales (Junction Press), his newly published translation of the first five kings' stories in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh.
- Amir Vahab will perform a spectacular set of music featuring songs of the Ancient land of the Middle East.
- Rounding out the night will be a screening of Like A Phoenix From The Ashes—a psychedelic visual feast of ultra-rare and vintage film from '60s/'70s Iran, culled and curated from hundreds of hours and endless stacks of VHS and film of flicks from the pre-revolution glory years.
- A special, original Haftseen, a non-traditional representation of the Persian New Year symbol will showcase various interpretations of the symbols by several NYC-based artists. Musical ambiance will also be provided by DJ Payam throughout the evening, spinning rare grooves from around the globe.
