Kinfolk – Issue 54

Introducing Issue 54: This issue of Kinfolk, which publishes just in time for the holiday season, draws on our origins as a guide for small gatherings and celebrates coming together—whether round a table, at a wedding, for cocktails or during the holidays—as a meaningful pursuit. Of course, the art of togetherness can be a little more complicated for those hosting. To make the process easier, we’ve approached creative cooks, florists and artists for their expert ideas, tips and advice, creating a 64-page section full of inspiration for your next party. You’ll find ideas for every occasion, from simple recipes for new drinks to serve on a Saturday night to advice on decorating a low-key (and low-cost) wedding. Elsewhere in the issue, we meet A.G. Cook, the hyperpop music producer who makes a case that even the most overplayed tunes on the radio can be feats of intense creative exploration. In Toronto, Matty Matheson shares insights from his experience as a chef, restauranteur and actor. Plus, we meet a muralist, ask whether millennials have ruined weddings, tour a restored Roman villa, and check in with a curator, a baby name consultant, a comedian and more. 192 pages, offset-printed and perfect bound, full color on uncoated and coated paper. Printed in United Kingdom.
