The UW Persian Student Association is a cultural community dedicated to reconnecting with Persian heritage and sharing it with others. Whether you grew up in Canada and feel distanced from your roots, or you're simply curious and eager to explore the richness of Persian culture, this club is for you.
The club hosts beginner-friendly sessions on speaking, reading, and writing in Persian (Farsi), perfect for anyone looking to improve or begin their language journey. Beyond language, we celebrate the diverse and vibrant aspects of Persian culture through events like Persian movie nights, artist and singer showcases, and traditional cultural games that offer a deeper understanding of our shared history and traditions. Furthermore, the club also hosts social gatherings, where students can connect over a cup of chai (tea), as well as Persian speaker nights and club trips + study sessions!

Join us to connect, learn, and celebrate Persian identity in a welcoming and inclusive space. No background knowledge is required — just curiosity, interest for cultural expansion, and an open mind!
