Sarv, The Culture School
Sarv The Culture School actively partners with museums, cultural institutions, academic institutions and community organizations to co-host events, workshops, and performances that celebrate Iranian art and heritage. Through these collaborations, we expand our educational mission beyond the classroom—creating shared spaces for dialogue, creativity, and cultural exchange.
Collaboration with the Persian Flagship Program
University of Maryland
Sarv The Culture School partnered with the Persian Flagship Program at the University of Maryland to offer a series of illustration and contemporary literature sessions for Persian language students. Through guided workshops, participants explored visual storytelling alongside modern Persian literary texts, deepening their engagement with language through artistic interpretation.
By combining literature and illustration, this collaboration created a dynamic learning environment where students connected linguistic study with creative expression—strengthening both cultural understanding and artistic insight.
