We’ve never done a global event quite like this before! Together, we’ll wander our way to beauty, inspiration, and wonder.

Our upcoming October theme is "Ethos," chosen by CreativeMornings/Asheville. Ethos refers to the shared beliefs, values, aspirations, and spirit that defines a group of people, place, or time period. What is an example of the "ethos" of your family, friend circle, community, or generation? Whether it’s a story, image, observation, song, poem, or other artifact, you can share your submissions in this form. We’ll feature a round-up in our Ethos issue at the end of the month!
