                                               Art Council in Iran
      In general, there is not any Arts Council in Iran.
In Iran each section of arts have own Union and these unions help artists to get license or art workshops. In some cases, artists do not communicate directly with the unions, They communicate through the galleries or publishers .
Iranian artists are Independent and unfortunately they don`t have benefits or grants.
Usually they make exhibitions or are art`s teachers in school, university or tutoring.

The most active part of the art in Iran is cinema.And recently there has been progress in the cinema and directory. Iranian people like cinema more than other arts.
                                                 
Leila Hatami is the Iranian favorite actress. Her father was a famous director and her mother was a actress as well. She played in the movie (The Separate) that got the Oscar last year.

           

This video is The national anthem of Iran include parts of the best Iranian movies of the last 50 years. I love it and I hope you like too.

Some Good Camping Tips for Natural Environment

Canada has good camping sites in conservation areas.

My family goes camping every summer, so I would like to introduce some good camping tips for protecting the natural environment.

First, I suggest, don’t bring disposable paper dishes or dixie cups. Camping at conservation areas can be a good natural education for your child or family. How about showing your good habits for the natural environment to your child? Your child will get a good impression about that.

Second, don’t use artificial detergent to wash your dishes at conservation areas. If you need to wash oily dishes, boil some water and put hot water in the dishes.  After that, wipe the dishes with paper towels. The dishes will be clean, and you can gather the dirty water in a plastic bottle.

Third, when you go into the tent to sleep at night, keep all organic garbage or kitchen tools in the car because wild animal might visit your site. We don’t know what would happen if wild animals ate our seasoned food, how they would react to it.

Forth, when you leave there, don’t leave anything at your site. Most camping sites have garbage and recycling bins; therefore, sort the garbage following the rules.  Especially, don’t dispose of used propane gas bottles with the general garbage because the leftover gas might make a fire.

Finally, I would like to tell you, respect all natural creatures including plants.  Remember, if you get something from nature, return it ten more times.
