February Events:
Beautiful Reading at Raglan Surf Co., New Zealand 🇳🇿
Last month, we had a magical gathering at Raglan Surf Co. as we welcomed Toni Haas, author of Goodnight Surf City, for an exclusive book reading!
Toni traveled all the way from the US to share her beautiful story, bringing readers together in a cozy and heartfelt session. The event also featured Whetū Harakeke Weaving, allowing attendees to take part in a creative and reflective activity inspired by the book’s deep connection to the coastal spirit of Raglan.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made this event truly special!
Stay connected for more exciting events. We can’t wait to see you next time!
