Meet  Varak Kaloustian
the author The Legend of V series

We meet Varak Kaloustian and the family at 21st Arpa International Film Festival 2018. Incredible young man.

At 15 years old, Kaloustian published and debuted his book earlier this year to a warm reception. The story — concerning the protagonist, simply named V, and a group of characters, who take a supernatural journey through archeology and science-fiction mysteries – has proven popular enough to instigate demands from readers for a sequel.

“The Legend of V: The Solar System’s Prophesies,” by Varak Kaloustian, is a captivating cavalcade of adventure, humor and science-fiction written by a promising teenage author in what should be considered a sign of many good things to come.

A sophomore-to-be at Notre Dame High School in Los Angeles, Kaloustian, says the idea for writing his book stemmed from a school assignment in sixth grade.

Varak Kaloustian is eighteen years old in his freshman year of college. He lives in Los Angeles, California with his mom, dad, and two brothers. He likes to play basketball, travel, and spend time with his friends and family. He currently has two published novels: “The Solar System’s Prophecies” and “Triangle Corruption”. Both are a part of a series called “The Legend of V”.

By Wally Sarkeesian, Fresno, California.

The Renaissance Cultural and Intellectual team have put up an impressive show from the ribbon-cutting ceremony at 2729 W. Griffith Way on Friday afternoon   to over 500 guests attended the celebration at Fresno State Satellite Student Union University.

On August 31 Friday something incredible happened in Fresno look like just another house on the block, but the Fresno home where Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and playwright William Saroyan lived out his final years is now open to the public as an interactive museum.

The museum features a hologram of Saroyan and a setup of his desk and part of his home as it was when he lived there. The rest of the house is filled with photos, videos and interviews taken of Saroyan throughout the years, posters of his work and his drawings.

Mayor Lee Brand, Councilwoman Esmeralda Soria and Mr. Artur Janibekyan Founder of the renaissance cultural and intellectual foundation were in attendance for the grand opening. The museum is in Soria’s district.

Saroyan’s home of 16 years has been converted into a high-tech interactive museum in the middle of a residential neighborhood in Central Fresno.

“Hologram is usually something that is fun for kids to see an actual character in actual space so that’s why we came up with the hologram thing,” said Meroujan Minssian.

Saroyan was born in Fresno in 1908 and died at the Veterans Hospital in 1981 of cancer. He purchased the home on Griffith Way 17 years before his death and split his time there and abroad, according to his biography.

The Renaissance Cultural and Intellectual Foundation, based in Armenia, purchased the house in 2015 and set out to renovate it to honor Saroyan and the Armenian community.
