Book description
This winter, Kinfolk reaches a new milestone: our 50th issue. To celebrate, we’re dedicating it to community and fellow-feeling. We meet inspiring groups of people near and far who’ve come together to connect, create, collaborate and care for one another. We speak with Vivien Sansour, who runs a seed bank outside of Bethlehem, where she works with local farmers to preserve heirloom seeds and, in turn, Palestine’s cultural heritage. In California, we meet the Old Gays—a group of gay elders whose later-in-life friendships and popularity on social media have made them curators of generational knowledge on a massive scale. We join Velociposse—a group of women, trans and nonbinary people—for a leisurely cycle around London, and visit the oldest Quaker meeting house still in use, where people come together to worship in silence. Since 2011 Kinfolk has established itself as a leader in art and culture, design and aesthetics, architecture, and homes and interiors. Our quarterly lifestyle magazine is sold in over 100 countries, published in three languages and makes the is the perfect coffee table magazine or gift for a creative. Featuring inspiring photography, fashion and style, as well as examinations of slow living. Kinfolk is an art and design publication that seeks to promote quality of life and connect a community of creative thinkers.
