Opening Reception - Sunday, September 30th
The opening night reception is an opportunity to mix, mingle and enjoy hors d’oeuvres and libations.  It will feature a special guest (to be announced) from the Iranian-American community. Last year's conference receptions featured U.S. Department of State Persian-Language Spokesman Alan Eyre and Iranian-American comedian/actor Max Amini.

Fundraiser Dinner Gala - Monday, October 1st
A night to be remembered, guests will have the extraordinary opportunity to meet with one of the most critically acclaimed public intellectuals alive today Noam Chomsky, as well as filmmaker and former Newsweek journalist Maziar Bahari. Noam Chomsky has strongly come out against U.S. foreign policy with Iran and will provide valuable insight on how ways we can promote peaceful and diplomatic solutions to the U.S./Iran impasse. Don't miss out on your chance to take a stand against war and support NIAC's efforts.  Guests will also enjoy a three-course meal and plenty of time for networking with fellow attendees.
