Craftswoman commercializes Manchu embroidery to help impoverished rural women

This confirmed Yang's determination to take up the responsibility of inheriting the Manchu embroidery. She won the public's recognition as the fourth generation inheritor of Manchu embroidery with her exquisite skills and works.

Yang also managed to find a way to integrate Manchu embroidery with cultural and creative industries to bring about the commercialization of the Manchu embroidery.

She wanted to teach more women living in remote rural mountainous areas to master the skills of making Manchu embroidery and improve their living conditions. So, she set up a Manchu-embroidery poverty-alleviation workshop in Lagela Village, Fuxin City in Liaoning Province, in May 2018. She provides free training sessions and materials to impoverished women in the village, enabling them to work at home.
