Let’s learn ancient crafts to counter brain rot. Next up: cross stitch and tatreez with Jenna (@weekendthreads_ )
.
Cross stitch is one of the oldest embroidery techniques, with examples dating back thousands of years across Asia, Africa, and Europe. In Tatreez, patterns reflect specific villages, landscapes, and histories, traditionally stitched onto garments like the thobe.
.
Can’t wait to see what you guys create.

Starting Friday, Astralab is transforming into a living archive of 1930s Palestine: with art, live music, culture & ancestral remembrance in collaboration with @watermelonpictures 

As our space is rooted in the Iranic principle of asha—truth as the great restorer of balance & harmony— and the Islamic principle of Tawhid — universal Oneness — we aim to always align with the truth-tellers and bridge-builders. Watermelon pictures is known to shake up false narratives, this time with their historical epic @palestine36film shining light on the longest anti-colonial uprising in British Empire history, mostly forgotten until now. 

A gathering series for the diaspora — a space to feel, to learn, to witness & reconnect across all false borders.

With our annual Bazaar coming up, we’ve been thinking a lot about cultural gatherings as a way to get through difficult times together, with not just our own people but with allies across cultures. This year’s marketplace builds off last year’s love, and adds new activities to meet us where we’re at these days. Swipe to learn more about what’s planned ➡️
