[Daviscenter-list] Nauruz Celebration on Wed., March 21!

Please join us for our first-ever Nauruz celebration for food and a cultural program! Nauruz is the new year celebration marked across a large part of Eurasia, notably in Central/Inner Asia, the Caucasus, and the greater Iranian and Turkic cultural spheres of influence. We'll be holding this Nauruz event as an occasion for scholars and students of Central Eurasian studies to meet each other and learn about the "Nauruz area" and the various departments and centers at Harvard which focus on this region.
