Khalidi to Give Illustrated Talk on Armenians in India at NAASR

Dr. Omar Khalidi of the Aga Khan Program for Islamic Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) will give an illustrated lecture entitled “Three Centuries of Armenian Heritage in India” on Thurs., June 4, at 8 p.m., at the National Association for Armenian Studies and Research (NAASR) Center in Belmont, Mass.
