The Martial Arts History Museum announced the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for its new permanent Armenian Exhibit, scheduled for Saturday, June 27, at 4:00 PM at its Glendale location. Sponsored in part by US Armenia, the event underscores the museum's expanding commitment to cultural diversity and community outreach.
The celebration will include a live Armenian martial arts demonstration and speeches from dignitaries representing the City of Glendale. Light food and refreshments will be provided. This free public event invites community members, martial arts enthusiasts, and media to attend.
Founded in 1999, the Martial Arts History Museum relocated to Glendale two years ago. Since then, it has broadened its focus beyond Asian martial arts to encompass a global perspective. The museum's mission centers on exploring the art, history, culture, and traditions behind martial arts disciplines, rather than solely physical combat. The new Armenian Exhibit marks a significant expansion of this mission, enriching the museum's diverse celebration of global cultures.
The museum is located at 201 N. Brand Blvd., B100, Glendale, CA 91203. For more information, visit MAmuseum.com.
