Community Hosting Program
Communi-Tea
Your community deserves a room like this.
If you have a community — a book club, a wellness circle, a professional network, a sisterhood, a creative collective — and you want to bring them into the room, this is how you do it. You bring your people. We provide the space, the tea, and the experience. You earn from every seat your community fills.
The Process
How Communi-Tea Works
01
Apply
Submit your Communi-Tea application. Tell us about your community, your mission, and the experience you want to create inside the room.

Get Approved
We review your application within 5 to 7 business days. If approved you receive a confirmation with your deposit link to complete your booking online.
03
Pay Your Deposit

04
Promote and Fill the Room
Share your unique host link with your community. They reserve their seats. You track your earnings in real time as tickets sell.
05
Host Your Night
Show up. We handle the room, the tea, the setup, and the experience. You focus on your community.
