About Iranian American Society of Daytona Beach

The Iranian American Society of Daytona Beach is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting Iranian culture and fostering cross-cultural understanding in the Daytona Beach, FL community. Since its founding in 1997 by approximately 60 Iranian Americans from Volusia County, the organization has served as a vital bridge between Iranian heritage and the broader regional community. The society operates on principles of inclusivity, maintaining a non-political and non-religious approach to cultural exchange. The Iranian American Society specializes in organizing literacy programs and social events designed to introduce and celebrate Iranian art, traditions, and cultural practices. Through carefully curated programming, the organization facilitates meaningful exchanges of people, ideas, and artistic expression. The society hosts a diverse calendar of events throughout the year, including traditional cultural celebrations such as Yalda Night, Chahar Shanbeh Soori, and Sizdah Bedar, which draw participants from across the Daytona Beach region. These events provide opportunities for both Iranian Americans and members of the broader community to engage with Iranian heritage in authentic and educational settings. By combining social gatherings with educational initiatives, the Iranian American Society of Daytona Beach creates an environment where cultural appreciation flourishes and community bonds strengthen. The organization remains committed to its original mission of promoting understanding and appreciation of Iranian culture while building lasting connections within the Volusia County area.
