Horizon Weekly - Supplements

Supplements

Horizon Weekly publishes several supplements, including the only Armenian monthly literary publication in the Diaspora. Edited by Vrej-Armen Artinian, this supplement brings together the works of talented writers across the Diaspora. The literary supplement has an editorial committee. Other Horizon supplements include a youth page, reborn in May 2000, thanks to the contributions from Canada's regional executive committee of the Armenian Relief Society and its local chapters, who saw the importance of publishing such an educational, yet diverting tool. More than 200 youths actively participate in the monthly brainteasers, whereas more than 800 copies of the youth supplement are freely distributed in Armenian schools in Toronto and Montreal. All winners are awarded prizes from the weekly. The editor of the youth supplement is Zepur Assadourian.

Between 2000 and 2006, more than 50 thematic supplements have been published, covering a wide array of topics, such as, Artsakh, Shoushi, Javakhk, The Armenian Genocide, the first Republic of Armenia, the 1700th anniversary of Armenian Christianity, Nakhichevan's Khachkars and so forth. Horizon's manager is Sylva Ehramdjian and her assistant is Mireille Merdkhanian. The editor of the English and French weekly supplements is Viken Aprahamian. Since 2010 Viken Aprahamian is the editor of Horizon's monthly literary supplement.
