Iran to celebrate Intl. Animation Day in nature

TEHRAN, Oct. 20 (MNA) – ASIFA Iran, in collaboration with the Iranian Animation Guild, will be organizing a special outing in the nature on November 8th to celebrate the 18th International Animation Day.

The program, lasting from 8 AM to 10 PM on November 8th, includes picnicking on the outskirts of capital Tehran, screening of nominated short animated films of Iran Independent Animation Celebration, and an interactive animation performance in the nature by Aghil Hosseinian.
