Kai
Share Kai is a collaboration between InCommon and Mahia Te Aroha using food as a gentle entry point into what can become deep, important and identity-level conversations.

Share Kai events make space for everyone around the table and explore memories of kai and themes of culture, belonging and diversity.

Visit our website ShareKai for more about our kaupapa, upcoming events and to order Share Kai catering.

We hope you’ll join us to share kai and kōrero!
