Registration for the 2026 Konokoto membership season is now open. New members who join before the end of March receive access to the full spring programme calendar, including the April market, two members-only evenings, and early notification of the summer residency.
The Konokoto programme has been running since 2022 as a way to support the long-term life of the district. Membership revenue directly funds the maintenance of shared spaces, the seasonal market infrastructure, and a small grants pool for neighborhood creative projects.
