In November 2009, Days of Azerbaijani Culture was first time held at the European Parliament’s headquarters following the initiative of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation. Within the event, a concert of Azerbaijani masters of art took place and works of art, artistic miniatures, exhibits reflecting Azerbaijan’s ancient applied and carpet-weaving arts, copper and antique items, as well as albums and booklets reflecting the Heydar Aliyev Foundation’s five-year activity in various spheres were displayed.
