The young adult community at my church started what they call "Wojtyla nights," named after Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II), and they consist of sharing of food and presentation of performance of various kinds of art by members of the community.

Last year, just before Christmas, my wife and I hosted a party with a formal toast, cocktail menu, and poetry readings.

It's possible to create spaces for culture to develop, but it requires active and persistent effort, and buy-in from others. 

 That is awesome! 🤗 And I believe that many are very active online...but when it comes to real physical action, then they crawl back... So it needs somehow leaders who manage to push forewords the project.  

 That’s so lovely!!! It can be so easy to bring people together. It’s just important to maintain a connection by regularly talking to each other & as you say, simply effort. Thanks for the inspiration. 🙏🏼🥰
