I’m so pleased to announce my first material collaboration with @nourjanpresents and present to you this super rad tote bag conceptualized by their team and brought to artisanal life here at Entangled Roots Press.

Nour Jan Presents is a multi-sensory platform promoting the intangible cultural heritage of Armenian diaspora. Its latest endeavor is the recently released podcast ‘This Diaspora Life’, which uses oral histories and archival music to do ethnographic deep dives into different diaspora communities around the world. First season, Armenian diaspora – Beirut, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, and on.

A portion of the proceeds earned will help aid the Nour Jan team in their efforts to preserve our ancestral inheritance while 25% of all sales goes to All for Armenia, working on the ground providing front-line aid to refugees from Artsakh, families on the borders, and creating community centers to foster cultural preservation and visions of a better tomorrow.

Be sure to follow Nourjan Presents where they will continue to chronicle their journey through sonic and visual means, broadcasting episodes of their podcast with their comrades at different community-led radio stations across the world.
