On October 16, upon the initiative of the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Armenia, a one-week exhibition featuring traditional Armenian costumes and carpets from the "Teryan" Cultural Center, titled "Future of the Past: Empowering Women Entrepreneurs through Supporting the Revival of Traditional Art of Armenia," took place at the UN office in Vienna.

H.E. Ambassador Armen Papikyan, Permanent Representative of the Republic of Armenia, delivered opening remarks. In his address, the Ambassador underscored the unique significance of Armenian traditional costumes and carpets in the rich Armenian cultural heritage. Referring to the purpose of the exhibition to encourage the expansion of women's employment opportunities, the ambassador highly appreciated the activity of the "Teryan" cultural center as an example of a successful combination of art, craft traditions and entrepreneurship.
