DC artists, Saya Behnam and Azadeh Sahraeian show their work beginning on November 3 through December 1. . Come see the kaleidoscope of colors created by Behnam and the patterns of line formations by Sahraeian. Both artists draw their inspiration from nature in their artwork. Behnam mixes colors that she extracts from plants, spices and other natural elements as her medium while Sahraeian's drawings allude to the formation process of genesis and growth in nature. The exhibition will continue through December 1, with an artist talk on Friday, November 15 from 7 to 9 pm which will be posted later.

The Iranian American Community Center (IACC), Pars Place is holding its first art show at its new location with the exhibit, Geometry & Calligraphy. As
Iranian art is so rich with both geometry as well as calligraphy, we are interested to see how contemporary artists can invoke these elements and produce interesting modern concepts and artwork. Geometric patterns which also include calligraphy are the pinnacle of Persian art. Their abstract design due to their aniconic quality have adorned architecture and monuments throughout history and have been used as decorative elements on objects and art pieces.This exhibition will strive to highlight the importance and the harmonious play between geometric shapes and calligraphic forms.
