The Immigrants Art House, with the aim of specialized and qualitative development of artistic activities, has established several art units in various artistic disciplines. These units provide a platform for artists within each field to collaborate closely, harness their talents and capacities effectively, and take collective steps toward enhancing their artistic and technical skills.
The Immigrants Art House is a shared artistic center for migrant artists, including Afghans and other foreign artists, established in January 2024 by the Amir Khusrow Balkhi Cultural and Artistic Foundation. The center aims to develop and expand artistic activities across various disciplines.
Throughout its period of activity, the Immigrants Art House, through impactful programs and collaboration with the Directorate General of Foreign Nationals, sought to play a significant role in promoting migrant art and fostering cultural connections between Iranian and migrant communities.
However, structural and administrative obstacles, including the non-implementation of some major proposed projects and residency-related restrictions affecting artists, hindered the full realization of the institution’s goals. For these reasons, the activities of the Immigrants Art House ceased at the end of 2024.
The commemoration ceremony of the indigenous Hazara culture and art, held in honor of the birth anniversary of martyr Abdul Ali Mazari, was organized by a group of Hazara intellectuals and migrant students.
The event was overseen by the Immigrants Art House of Khorasan Razavi and held in cooperation with the Directorate General of Foreign Nationals and Immigrants Affairs of Khorasan Razavi Province on June 1, 2024, at the Melal Bazaar in Golshahr, Mashhad. The ceremony was attended by a gathering of migrants, cultural organizations, and intellectuals.
The exhibition was organized and inaugurated by the Immigrants Art House of Khorasan Razavi, in collaboration with the Farsi-Speakers Office of the Art Center and supported by the Cultural and Social Foundation of Afghans residing in Iran.
The event took place at the Bazaar-e Mellal (Multicultural Bazaar) in Mashhad, with the presence of the Director General of Foreign Nationals and Immigrants Affairs of Khorasan Razavi Province.
