In partnership with Little Tokyo Service Center (LTSC), a social service and and development organization in Los Angeles, we introduced the world of skateboarding to 12 children participating in their Mi CASA after-school program at Terasaki Budokan.

The workshop was led by skater and good friend of même., Santino, and our co-founder, Anthony. Kids learned the basics of skateboarding: balancing on a board, how to kick-push, and finding their footing on wheels. The skate session ended with kids screen printing their own même.skateboarding team logo tees.

Each kid was gifted a même. skateboard complete with trucks, wheels, grip tape, and a helmet, elbow and knee pads, and wrist guards to continue their skate journey beyond the afternoon!

In partnership with PUMA, we designed an entire kids museum to celebrate the launch of our collaborative shoe: the Reimagined PUMA Suede by même.

As families checked into the museum, kids were greeted with custom museum stickers, pencils, and a scavenger hunt pamphlet to complete as they walked through the space.

Throughout the museum, kids were met with historical facts of the même. universe: when it was founded, the mission and vision, where it all began, and why the brand started.

Kids also learned how to dissect pattern pieces that make up a single garment (a pair of pants, a t-shirt, and hoodie), and screen printed their own custom PUMA x même. tees to commemorate the evening.

Kids that completed their scavenger hunt pamphlets received tote bags full of art supplies, canvas, and paper, to take home.

In partnership with PUMA, we designed a one-of-a-kind screen printing workshop for kids to their Flagship store in New York.

Children learned how t-shirts are made and designed their own tees by operating a real screen printing press with guidance from our founders.

The designs were an assortment of affirmations that kids read aloud and selected to design their tees. Practicing positive-self talk through this hands-on activity was so sweet to witness. The affirmations they chose from were: I am creative, I am courageous, I am kind, I am enough.

In partnership with PUMA, we designed a one-of-a-kind block printing workshop for kids to their Flagship store in New York.

Children learned how t-shirts are made and designed their own tees by hand-stamping t-shirts using various linocut stamps.

Kids' creations ranged from color drenched, polka dotted tees, to particularly stamped "logo" placements - each bringing their own sense of style and creativity to each garment.

Kids went home with tote bags full of linocut stamps and paints to continue designing at home.

In partnership with Milli Agency and University of Washington HipHop Student Association, our Founder, Reina, was invited to speak on a panel with Sango (of Soulection) and Kenny (of Fresh Selects).

The panel discussion was a conversation on forging sustainable creative careers - Reina within fashion, Sango as a music producer, and Kenny as a record label founder.

Reina spoke about her journey in building her own kidswear design company and the obstacles faced when balancing creativity and business operations. She touched on the sacrifices creative people have to make in order for ideas to exist and thrive, and the weight of wearing-all-the-hats at once when starting a business from the ground up.

Students learned the history of he founding of même., how the founders define themselves through their disciplines and how their life experiences have led them to their intuitive journey in finding their voice within the kids fashion space and art collective at large.

Students journeyed through their past works, learned about who our founders were before they began the brand, and learned the influences of what drives the brand today.

The discussion ended with an open Q&A, where students asked in-depth questions on discovering our creativity, learning how to "fail," and following our intuitive creative expression in tumultuous times.

In partnership with Microsoft, we brought technology and apparel design together to teach kids how to bring their own embroidery patches and appliqués to life.
