&

The ampersand has always represented connection.

It joins one idea to another.
One person to another.
One story to the next.

Gather & ... was intentionally left unfinished because the story is still being written.

Sometimes we gather to cook.

Sometimes to wander through the garden.

Sometimes over tea.

Sometimes around a beautifully set table.

Sometimes simply to enjoy good conversation.

The words after the ampersand will continue to evolve.

What will never change is why we gather.

To slow down.

To learn.

To celebrate.

To belong.

Because there is always room for one more.
