ACTIVATIONS

A-Priori’s activations extend beyond retail — they’re how we connect, collaborate, and build culture. Each gathering carries its own rhythm but shares one purpose: to bring people together through experience.

FLASHDRIVE sets the tone — an experimental and collaborative DJ series that spans genres from house and techno to hip-hop and Latin dance. In partnership with local bars and creatives, it transforms our retail store into cultural space, where sound and community converge.

FOOTPRINT grounds us — recurring group hikes through the preserved landscapes of Nebraska and Iowa. It’s a moment to disconnect, move with intention, and occasionally wear-test A-Priori’s product offerings in the wild. A quiet reminder of rhythm, balance, and the importance of pace. 

FOOD-FOR-THOUGHT connects the dots — a thesis-driven activation designed to spark dialogue and reflection. Each edition shifts form: a chef-led dinner, a wine tasting, or an open conversation. Whatever the shape, the purpose remains the same — cultivating meaningful conversation through shared experience.

Together, these activations form the foundation of A-Priori’s community — simple, quality, timeless expressions of what comes first.
