“After hard efforts we managed to get to the end of the tunnel,” Peter
Kutujian, member of the House of Representatives, said during the
arrangement at the Art Center of the Clark University on March 18. He
said that the building N13 in Parcel Street of Rose Kennedy Green Way
will officially become another Monument to the Armenian Genocide. The
representatives of Wooster and Boston Armenian communities praised
the consistent efforts of Kutujian that led to a success. The first
Armenian church was built in Wooster in 1895. The location of the
monument was defined by the Telalian Association of Architects and
Programmers. The whole area will be called “The Armenian Heritage
Park.” It will look like a circle, defining the long path of the
history. A twelve lateral abstract statute that will symbolize the 12
provinces of Armenia will be set up in the middle of the park. The pool
and the ever-flowing water will symbolize the hope and the rebirth.

The Armenian Mirror Spectator weekly informed that the Armenian
dioceses as well as NGOs supported the program. It is envisaged to
hold annual meetings and deliver lectures dedicated to the Genocide
and the human rights issues in the Armenian Heritage Park.
