Kinfolk

I am collecting Manifestos this month.  Stating what you stand for can be one of the most empowering things you can do.  It gives us a purpose.  It gives us determination and supports our passion.  Whether or not you believe in such a hard truth about yourself or about an organization or community, you have to be inspired by someone stating, without apology, their view of the world.  Let us just hope it includes a vision for a more loving and compassionate world.

MANIFESTO

Kinfolk is a growing community of artists with a shared interest in small gatherings. We recognize that there is something about a table shared by friends, not just a wedding or once-a-year holiday extravaganza, that anchors our relationships and energizes us. We have come together to create Kinfolk as our collaborative way of advocating the natural approach to entertaining that we love.

Every element of Kinfolk—the features, photography, and general aesthetics—are consistent with the way we feel entertaining should be: simple, uncomplicated, and less contrived. Kinfolk is the marriage of our appreciation for art and design and our love for spending time with family and friends.
