The Persian Speakers Student Association is a cultural and social club dedicated to creating a welcoming community for all Farsi speakers, their friends, and anyone interested in Persian culture and traditions. Our purpose is to foster cultural connections and provide a home for those far from homes through the celebration of rich cultural heritage.
We plan to host a variety of initaitives, including grand celebrations for traditional festivals like Yalda, Chaharshanbe Suri, Nowruz, Sizdah Bedar and Jashn e Mehregan. Alongside these major cultural events we will run casual social gatherings featuring traditional game nights (such as Takhteh/Backgammon), authentic persian food, poetry readings and persian music ensuring an open space for everyone to connect, share and celebrate.
In addtion the club will also offer informal peer support, networking opportunities and mentorship to help students (specially those newly arrived Farsi speakers) settle into university life and thrive!
