The longest night
On the night of the winter solstice Iranians gather with family, eat pomegranates and watermelon, and stay up reading poetry. Read about Shab-e Yalda.
A night of music
A live evening could bring members together online for songs on the setar and tar, readings of Hafez, and a fal where each guest draws a verse. See Persian music and Hafez for the traditions behind it.
Perform or listen
Musicians and readers can sign up in the Music & Concerts group.
