The Joint Justice Initiative will host an event at the Australian Parliament House on Monday, March 20 from 6pm to commemorate the centenary of the Smyrna Catastrophe.
The event, which was postponed last year due to the death of Queen Elizabeth II, will be held at the Dorothy Tangney Alcove room.
There will be representatives of the Armenian National Committee of Australia, the Assyrian National Council – Australia and the Australian Hellenic Council in attendance.
The Smyrna Catastrophe is a solemn date marked in the calendar of many Greek Australians and the event will celebrate the three communities’ survival post the 1915 Genocide.
There will be cultural performances throughout the evening.
