Dr. Zolfaghari holds degrees in English Language and Literature from Shahid Beheshti University, General Linguistics from Allameh Tabataba\u2019i University, Ancient Cultures and Languages from the University of Tehran, and Anthropological Linguistics from Leiden University. Her academic and cultural work in the fields of language, culture, and Iranian heritage provided the foundation for establishing this center with the aim of creating a connection between academic research and the wider community.<\/p>\n<p>The name \u201cNoruz\u201d reflects the breadth, diversity, and vitality of the Iranian cultural world \u2014 a heritage that throughout history has encompassed a wide range of languages, traditions, arts, and cultural practices.<\/p>\n<p>The primary mission of Noruz Cultural and Artistic Center is to build a bridge between academia and society by making scholarly knowledge and research on Iran accessible to the public, beyond political perspectives and preconceived notions. The center seeks to foster a deeper understanding of different aspects of Iranian culture through a scholarly and cultural approach, while encouraging dialogue among researchers, scholars, artists, and cultural enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>Noruz organizes in-person and online courses on ancient, Middle, and modern Iranian languages, with a particular focus on Persian, as well as lectures, academic discussions, workshops, and cultural and artistic programs exploring various aspects of Iran\u2019s heritage. By inviting researchers, scholars, and artists, the center creates a space for the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and experiences between academia and the broader community.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"sws_supernormalaction\"><button on=\"tap:superwebshare-lightbox\" class=\"superwebshare_normal_button1 superwebshare-button-lg superwebshare-button-default superwebshare_prompt superwebshare_button_svg\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color: #BD3854;\" ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"superwebshare-svg\"  fill=\"currentColor\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"0\"><path stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" d=\"M789.86,323.67c91.79,0,164.25-72.46,164.25-164.25S881.64,0,789.86,0S625.6,72.46,625.6,164.25c0,4.83,0,14.49,0,24.15L306.76,371.98c-24.15-24.15-57.97-33.82-96.62-33.82c-91.79,0-164.25,72.46-164.25,164.25s72.46,164.25,164.25,164.25c38.65,0,72.46-14.49,96.62-33.82L625.6,821.26c0,9.66,0,14.49,0,19.32c0,86.96,72.46,159.42,159.42,159.42s159.42-72.46,159.42-159.42s-67.63-159.42-154.59-159.42c-33.82,0-67.63,9.66-96.62,33.82L374.4,526.57c0-9.66,0-19.32,0-24.15s0-14.49,0-24.15l318.84-188.41C717.39,314.01,751.21,323.67,789.86,323.67z\" \/><\/svg><span>Share<\/span><\/button><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday, October 10, 2026 \u2014 6:15 PM local time Sufi CenterAnna Paulownastraat 78, 2518 BJ Den Haag Noruz Cultural and Artistic Center will host a lecture in Persian by Professor&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":4712,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"content_types":[],"class_list":["post-4710","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4710"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4710\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4720,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4710\/revisions\/4720"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4710"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4710"},{"taxonomy":"content_types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ancientirannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content_types?post=4710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
