Canadian Armenian Community Services Centre

Who We Are

Barev, meaning "hello" in Armenian, serves the Canadian-Armenian community through social, cultural, and educational programming.​

Barev Centre exists to serve as a bridge for all members of the community and to strengthen our sense of identity in the diaspora.

Our Vision

Barev Centre is the arc that bridges together the Canadian and Armenian communities.
