CHURCH - Queer Party

Gather once more, congregation.

CHURCH returns this August with a new edition—an offering of sound, movement, and connection. This time, we’re proud to announce a collaboration with illustrator and poet Jessica Hinerangi Thompson-Carr (Ngāruahine, Ngāti Ruanui, Ngāpuhi), known as Māori Mermaid.

Jessica’s work, rooted in whakapapa and community, graces the visual identity of this event. Her illustrations weave tenderness and strength—values we hold close at CHURCH. The featured artwork will be available for purchase directly through her website, with $5 from each sale donated to Rainbow Youth, supporting queer and gender-diverse rangatahi across Aotearoa.

CHURCH is a space for our queer community and allies—a place to dance, perform, create, connect, and simply exist without apology. Come through to move, feel, and be.

More details to come.
