On Sunday April 4th a highly appreciated art exhibit by Assyrian artists was held at the Association. The participants included: Walter Ebrahimzadeh, Mr. Frederick Ayubkhan, Miss Odit Tomik, Mrs. Jenik Cook, Mr. Veladimar Bet David and Mr. Fernand Mirza.

Mrs. Jenik Cook had brought with her an Oscar which was awarded to her recently by the " Association of the FLorence Galleries" of Italy for her contributions to the culture of the Fine Arts. In 2001 she had also received an honorary degree of the "Associated Academician of the Department of Arts" from the Italian "Academic Internazionale" for her teaching work at the Every Woman's Village.

An International Artist, Jenik was born in Iran and learned her art from private teachers. Her art activities include painting sculpture, graphics and ceramic. Critics agree that the tenet of her work is Modernism, her paintings are richly exotic and her use of bold colors and shapes add interesting depth to her unique artistic expression.
