Find Your SparkPlace
Not home. Not work. The café counter, the studio corner, the porch where the conversation just happens. We’re inviting you to notice third spaces — and help us map where belonging actually happens.
Community · Comfort · Creativity — Third Space Challenge · 2026
Why This Matters
“The places where people truly belong are worth protecting, celebrating, and helping thrive.”
We call these places SparkPlaces — spaces where Community, Comfort, and Creativity come together and people feel like they belong.
We’re asking you to find one, sit with it a while, and help us add it to a living map of third places from around the world. Every nomination is a small act of protecting the spaces that hold us.
