Community activations and events
CHAI & KAI and Self Love Sundays, alongside collaborations with local communities and their leaders, spaces, event makers, and councils who want to bring people together.
A Friday night that becomes a family gathering. A Sunday that slows you right down. A special event warmed by chai culture. That's Aroha Mā self love, share love, one love expressed through community activations and events.
We also create kaupapa-aligned products & art that share our transmission and carry the mauri far and wide, into — homes, workplaces, daily rituals, community spaces, activations and events.
