A festive mood was in full swing on the grounds of the Armenian National Assembly today in Yerevan.

Music and colorful balloons filled the air at an exhibition sale organized by pupils of several senior schools.

Given that there was an entrance fee to get in, potential buyers were limited to MP’s and employees at the parliament.

None of the MP’s we spotted at the exhibit actually bought anything. They circled the tables, made a few encouraging comments, and then took off.

The event was organized by the National Assembly, USAID and Armenia’s Junior Achievement.
