Event Date: November 14, 2026 (10AM)

Join Haru Haru, Homebody Matcha, Tokofoto Chicago, Nariae, and Jade Dragon Social Club for a collaborative pop-up bringing food, matcha, portraiture, and social connection into one shared experience.

When you arrive, you’ll choose one of five energies: Soft, Bold, Lucky, Chaotic, or Nostalgic. Your selection will guide you through optional photo prompts and conversation starters designed to make the room feel a little more playful and a lot easier to enter.

A $60 ticket includes:
- a bulgogi crunchwrap (or vegetarian mapo tofu) from Haru Haru
- a specialty matcha latte from Homebody
- a specialty pastry from Nariae
- a two-minute portrait session (per person) at Tokofoto Chicago (solo or with another ticket holder)
- 5 x 7 portrait print
- a take-home goodie bag featuring products from Park to Shop and hi-snaps

Come alone or bring someone with you!

The goal is to indulge in something delicious, step in front of the camera, and see what finds you in between.

Choose your wave:
Gonggam will take place across two ticketed waves:
- Wave One: 10 AM–12 PM

- Wave Two: 12–2 PM
