Suminagashi is simple, requiring only two materials and a small number of tools. It is easy to learn, and emphasizes the meditative or relaxing qualities of the process—creating designs that are organic, irregular, and unpredictable—rather than complex patterns. It can also be modified by using different papers or fabrics, and using different colored inks. *Saturday, October 5, 1-3 pm, Rangolis with Rangoli **Register for free here. <https://assemblepgh.org/programs/saturday-crafternoons/>* Rangoli is a traditional South Asian art form consisting of colorful geometric designs made using powder sprinkled on the ground, typically during Hindu festivals. Just like Rangoli Pittsburgh, rangolis are colorful, collaborative, and celebratory, and we invite attendees to come learn about this art form and create their own rangoli designs! In this workshop, we will help attendees create their own small rangoli designs that they can take home with them. *What are CRAFTERNOONS? *'Saturday Crafternoons at Assemble PGH are free weekly drop-in programs for youth ages 5 to 11.

Led by women and non-binary artists, JADED creates spaces for AAPI representation and empowerment. From large, public celebrations to intimate AAPI-only gatherings, JADED addresses the trauma of racial violence, reveals the hidden history of AAPI migration in the region and offers mentorship and networking opportunities for our communities. Founded in 2021 in response to rising anti-Asian violence, JADED creates communal spaces for healing, rest and joy. Its programming centers queer Asian femmes while connecting new groups with established organizations like the OCA (Organization of Chinese Americans.) JADED aims to create a space in a majority white city where an AAPI immigrant diaspora fragmented by interpersonal and structural racism finds power in the collective. *What is Assemble PGH? *assemblepgh.com 'Assemble is a nonprofit organization and community space for arts and technology education located in Pittsburgh’s Garfield neighborhood. At our core, our mission is to build confidence through making by creating approachable opportunities for learners of all ages to engage with Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM) based activities.' *We would like to share our deep thanks to the Pittsburgh Foundation for helping to make JADED's programming possible,and to the supporters of Assemble <https://assemblepgh.org/about_assemble/thank_you_to_supporters/>who have also helped to support this series. * the JADED team xoxoxo
