Kongsi Essential – April 2026

Welcome to Kongsi Essential, a weekly series of free community classes designed to bring us back to the basics—and to each other.

In a world that moves increasingly fast, we’re slowing down to ask a simple question: What is truly essential to us? We believe the answer lies in the things we can create with our hands, the skills we can share, and the community we can count on.

Each week, we get together and put our hand skills to work. Whether it’s cooking, homecare, fermentation, body care, gardening or mending, these classes are strictly hands-on. We’re here to get our hands dirty, learn by doing, and rediscover the quiet satisfaction of manual mastery.
