Ticket cost: Free to attend
What’s included: This is a self-led shared picnic. Guests are encouraged to bring food, snacks, drinks, and any art supplies or creative materials they’d like to share
What to bring: A blanket to sit on, anything you’d like to eat or share, and any art or craft project you are currently working on (or want to start)
This gathering is part of Kindred’s ongoing effort to help members connect locally through simple, repeatable moments of togetherness. Hosting and traveling through Kindred is about trust, generosity, and real human connection, and this is a chance to experience that spirit in person.
Whether you’re brand new or have been part of the community for years, we’d love to see you there.
About the organizer
Kindred is a members-only home-swapping network built on a close-knit community. We make travel more affordable and accessible by allowing you to earn credits for hosting others, either through swaps or while you're away. No money is exchanged between members; everything runs on a simple credit system. Instead of overpaying for rentals while your home sits empty, we empower our members to explore their next destination conveniently and affordably, while fostering a trusted community of people who seek to live a travel-rich lifestyle.
