The Hartak Experience Sharing Festival will be held for the second time in Yerevan from 11th to 12th June. 

Welcome to Hartak Festival, an exciting and innovative festival held annually in Yerevan, Armenia centered around a series of workshops, discussions and events, where you can exchange skills, experiences and knowledge with other like-minded, creative people as part of a new, developing community!

This year, Hartak is extending its program. As well as the already-approved 40 workshops, we will also be hosting panel and round-table discussions, along with an exciting programme of events leading up to the main festival weekend. 

Furthermore, this year the festival will focus on environmental issues. We will therefore host a series of additional workshops on such issues as ecology, recycling, and conservation of resources, and practical ways of addressing these issues in each section, as well as discussions about solving these problems in Armenia.

Hartak's summer series has four sections: Body & Soul, D.I.Y., Art and Tech, Food. 

Body & Soul: 
Fun, healthy open air workshops will be held in the parks of Yerevan, such as yoga, Chi Kung training, Wing Chun martial art, pantomime, helpful discussions for mothers, and lectures about personal healthcare, on personal growth and freedom. 

D.I.Y: 
In this section, Hartak is hosting local artists and several international guests such as Bukuroshe, an Albanian skilled in recycling jeans; Sepp, a German eco-carpet maker; and Maya, an advocate for natural cosmetics from Canada. 

Food: 
This will be the largest and tastiest section just like last year. The best restaurants and chefs will be presented, who will teach delicious recipes and culinary secrets from around the world, not to mention etiquette rules and food culture. 

Art & Tech: 
This innovative section will be concerned with interesting experiments concerning the fusion between art and technology, music, painting, design, storytelling, digital tools and engineering innovations.
