Description

Photo caption:
"Father Knows Best- Thomas T. Amirian knows exactly how the soft folds of his daughter's lace veil should fall when she comes onstage to demonstrate the old Armenian 'village type' dances. In former times Adrienne's cap would have been heavily encrusted with genuine gold braids and coins."

From the article:
"Around Portland, the Armenian community is sizable and active, and in recognition of this the continuing education division of the University of Maine has been sponsoring a series of seven informal programs on Armenian culture and history."

From the Portland Evening Express, 18 April 1975.
