Discover the heart of community with this thoughtfully illustrated 2026 desktop calendar celebrating "third places"—those essential spaces beyond home and work where people gather, connect, and build community. Each month features a different beloved local coffee shop or bookstores rendered in charming detail.
The concept of "third places," coined by sociologist Ray Oldenburg, recognizes these vital community anchors where neighbors become friends, ideas are exchanged, and the fabric of local life is woven. This calendar pays tribute to these often-overlooked spaces that make our neighborhoods feel like home.
