Built because community shouldn't be this hard to find
I started Awaargi because South Asian events in NYC were scattered across Instagram stories, WhatsApp threads, ticket links, and friend-of-a-friend posts. Every Thursday, I pull the week into one clear edit: the dinners, shows, talks, parties, and gatherings I'd send to a friend.
Awaargi ships every Thursday at 9 AM ET.
