HOW DO WE NAVIGATE DIFFERENT CULTURES IN AMERICA? HOW DO WE REPRESENT
THOSE EXPERIENCES? THESE QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN EXPLORED THROUGHOUT
HISTORY FROM MANY PERSPECTIVES. ANOUSH OFFERS A CREATIVE AND PERSONAL
RESPONSE THROUGH CARTOONS, STORIES, AND HUMOR.
Join us for a stimulating lecture by storyteller and cartoonist,
Anoush Froundjian. Anoush explores the nuances of navigating multiple
cultures — capturing the strange, funny, and deeply human moments
that often feel difficult to put into words. A common thread emerges
throughout the work: when you’re pressured to fit into a box,
you’re also given the opportunity to design it yourself.
Together, the evening looks at how people shape identity, use art as a
lens to explore personal experience and belonging, and make meaning
out of moments that rarely fit neatly into one category.
ANOUSH FROUNDJIAN is a storyteller and cartoonist whose work centers
on the Armenian experience in America. She creates the
webcomic Anoush Talks to Stuff, where a girl speaks to inanimate
objects, and co-produces the storytelling show The Armenian Power
Hour. You can find her at @AnoushTalksToStuff and learn more about the
show at @thearmenianpowerhour.
WE’LL EXPLORE:
? storytelling, art, and cartoons as tools for expressing identity
? moments, big and small, that shape cultural experience
? how personal stories can reveal broader questions around culture,
representation, and belonging
culture
