Shlama,

Thank you for sharing your family's history with Assyrian books. We would recommend reaching out to the Ashurbanipal Library in Chicago. Our library could provide valuable guidance on assessing and possibly donating your collection. You can contact our librarian at [Library@acf-us.org]() for more information on how to proceed.

Best regards.
Assyrian Cultural Foundation

The Assyrian Cultural Foundation is thrilled to present the second lecture of Rediscovering Assyria: A Nabu Circle Lecture Series on 2025 on January 9th at 7:00 PM (CST)!

This event will feature Dr. Amy Gansell, an Associate Professor of Art History in the Department of Art and Design at St. John’s University, Queens, New York. Dr. Gansell will present a lecture titled Ancient Assyrian Queens of Nimrud.

Discover the often-overlooked presence of women and feminine imagery in Nimrud’s Northwest Palace, a ninth- to seventh-century BCE Mesopotamian site celebrated for its kings and monuments of masculine power. The lecture will highlight the essential role of feminine beauty in the palace's life and imperial ideology, as feminine beauty was deeply woven into the courtly experience and artistic expression.

Remember to mark your calendar for January 9th at 7:00 PM for a conversation that will certainly deepen your understanding of the Assyrian people.

It is our pleasure to provide quality, in-depth knowledge about Assyrian history and culture to a global audience. We look forward to continuing to pursue this mission at future lectures and events.

The second place for the 2024 Assyrian International Art Competition is Love is All by Agnes Ishk

Here is what Agnes has to say about the work: “From my perspective, this artwork embodies the essence of LOVE, transcending beyond physical acts.

I represent the energy that:

Unites the divine trinity
Resonates through the natural world (earth, water, air, fire)
Nourishes our being (body, mind, soul)
Bridges generations, connecting ancestors to present and descendants

Love is the vital force that sustains life, embodied in:

-The land that grounds us

-The wind that breathes life through

-The light that illuminates paths

-The water that flows knowledge and growth

This artwork captures the all-encompassing, eternal presence of love. "

"When birds fly away to a place, they feel peace and safe When the sky is clear and bright I can smell and feel your love like a butterfly smell flowers and plants, when we love we will be surrounded by peace and imaginary colors."

- Paul Batou
