Thank you to everyone who joined us on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at the Florida Turkish Center for our annual Atatürk Remembrance Day luncheon.

The afternoon will begin with a moment of silence in tribute to Atatürk's enduring leadership and vision. Following this, children from the FTAA Atatürk School will also recite poetry and a special anthem, and the FTAA Atatürk Chorus will lead us in singing Atatürk’s favorite songs, as we reflect on his timeless contributions to Turkey and the world.
Lunch will feature some of Atatürk’s favorite comfort foods, including rice, beans, pickles, and helva, offering a simple yet heartfelt way to connect with his memory.
