In the week of May 19, we organized our second Turkish Hand-made arts and crafts bazaar at MARTI. The event gave us the opportunity to meet new friends who are interested in Turkish culture and even visiting Turkey. We also provided Turkish food to our guests. The event not only served as a milestone to introduce Turkish culture but also help to receive some donations for MARTI. |
