We had great confidence, in the ability of Orran’s children to communicate through art, song and dance, and create beauty with their own hands. They develop the talents they possess. As a result of the above considerations, we created an Arts & Crafts Center at Orran where the children are able to learn macramé, gobelin (tapestry), carpet knitting, sewing and crochet. Since the opening of the Center, the children of Orran have made lots of handcrafts, some of which were displayed at the A gobelin (tapestry) of a church A carpet made by Yepraksia sale exhibition at the Armenia Marriott Hotel during the Month created by Orran child, Tamara Sarkisyan, 11 years old of Orran 2006.
