Photos from last Sunday, when The The Old Stone House was buzzing with sounds from across the globe. How lucky is Ōtautahi to have these artists in the same city, better yet, the same room? A huge thank you to Share Kai, InCommon and Mundi for the mahi that turned this idea into a reality. 🌏✨

The The Old Stone House was absolutely packed sunday afternoon with many of Ōtautahi’s talented world musicians and delicious kai from all over the globe. We’re blown away by how many people came to take part in our very first world music jam with Share Kai, InCommon & Mundi

We were especially honoured to host musicians from India, China, Japan, Afghanistan, Iran, Ghana, Eritrea, Ukraine, Brazil, and beyond... all in one room sharing instruments and creating music together 🎶 🙌🏻 🥁 🪈
