Oxford Persian Institute seeks to promote the appreciation and understanding of Persian culture by exhibiting the work of contemporary Iranian artists in the UK as well as featuring the work of non-Iranians who are engaged with Persian art and culture from a scholarly or artistic perspective.
Occasionally, OXPE will organise events showcasing the art and traditions of Iranian tribal, ethnic and minority groups.
The major Persian festivals of the year such as Nowruz (the Persian new year in March) and Yalda (the winter solstice) will be marked with traditional celebrations open to the public.
