On November 11, the Armenian Genocide Museum Institute will host a public speech by researcher Missak Keleshian.

He will present the photographic and the video materials regarding the American Near East Relief Organization’s orphan care activity in Greece, Cyprus, Lebanon, Jerusalem, Egypt and Armenia after the Armenian Genocide which he had conducted on his own initiative.

The author will present some photos on the Armenian Genocide and the Armenian orphans, previously unknown to the public.

After the meticulous studies the author has revealed interesting episodes about the turkifying policy of the Armenian orphans in Antura’s state orphanage established by the Young Turks. It is worth to mention the story of the hand-crafted carpet made by the Armenian orphans in Ghazir which was donated to the U.S. President.

Missak Keleshian has made remarkable findings about the history of the Armenian refugee camps in Beirut by comparing the recorded images of the numerous photos and the video materials.
