is the inaugural public programming series celebrating the art and culture of the Eastern Asian American community in Pittsburgh, PA. Organized by a collective of AAPI artists and organizers, also named JADED, comprised of Lena Chen, Anne Chen, and Caroline Yoo, this debut series builds interethnic coalitions to create safe spaces of kinship and addresses racial trauma while celebrating cultural heritage. Programming and intimate events aim to reanimate local histories, preserve cherished family recipes/customs and nurture intergenerational dialogue. All of our events were free to the public.
