About the theme:
Our theme for April is CROSSROADS.
It was chosen by our Wroclaw chapter in Poland, illustrated by Joanna Gniady, and is presented by our global partner Adobe.
We all reach turning points in life that change the course of our destiny. Should you continue straight? Or turn left? There’s no map that shows where the consequences lead.
In folklore and mythology, crossroads represent a gateway between our mortal coil and the supernatural realm. An in-between place of transition, where anything can happen next.
How do you decide which way to go? There’s no wrong choice. Only different journeys to where you’re meant to be.
