The Istanbul Friends of the American Research Institute in Turkey (FARIT) will host an open house on Wednesday 7 February to celebrate the opening of their new location, share their fall program, and enlist potential new members. Entry is free, running from 17:00 to 19:00.
From the organizer:
The FRIENDS OF ARIT (FARIT), with branches in Ankara, Istanbul and North America, was established to support the American Research Institute in Turkey and help it carry out its scholarly activities. The Istanbul Friends run a year-round program of tours and lectures for members and their guests. These lectures and trips, given by area experts and field archaeologists who donate their time and expertise, are always informative and relatively inexpensive. Membership is open to all interested individuals.
Everyone interested in the activities of the FRIENDS OF ARIT is welcome at our Open House at our new premises. Information about the Institute and a program of activities for the fall will be available.
We will be signing up members, and for those who still have not renewed for the current year this will be a convenient opportunity. Please remember–membership payment must be in cash or by credit card—no checks.
All profit from FARIT activities goes to support our Ph.D. fellowships program. This year, as in recent years, we have an overwhelming number of top quality Turkish nationality applicants who can find very little other funding. Your continued support is critical to their future!
