Dear Supporter,

The SHK2026 Organizing Committee is pleased to announce the 38th edition of our Annual Kermesse, which will take place from August 14 to 16, 2026.

This year’s event is especially significant. With the school playground renovation project now underway, the Kermesse will take place in a new location for the first time in many years. While this change presents new challenges, our purpose remains the same: to bring our community together and carry forward a cherished tradition that has united us for nearly four decades.

The Kermesse is much more than a festival; it is a vibrant celebration of community spirit, generosity, and cultural heritage. Each year, thousands of people gather to enjoy live music, cultural performances, delicious food, and activities for the whole family. More importantly, it provides an opportunity for families, friends, and neighbors to connect, celebrate, and strengthen the bonds that make our community so special.

For 38 years, the success of the Kermesse has been made possible through the support of partners like you. Thanks to your generosity, numerous projects have been realized for the benefit of our community and future generations. The achievements of today are the result of the commitment and support of yesterday’s sponsors.

By becoming a sponsor of Kermesse 2026, you become part of this legacy of building for the future. Your support will help us continue to develop new initiatives, improve our facilities, and invest in projects that will strengthen our community for years to come. Together, we can create opportunities and achievements that will make a lasting impact on future generations.

Enclosed, you will find information outlining the various sponsorship opportunities available. We hope we can count on your support in making this special edition of the Kermesse a tremendous success.

On behalf of the SHK2026 Organizing Committee, we sincerely thank you for your continued trust, generosity, and commitment to our community.

Warm regards,

Organizing Committee Sourp Hagop Kermesse – 2026 edition
