Home: A Celebration: Notable Voices Reflect on the Meaning of Home Description

In this motivational book to support No Kid Hungry, renowned designers, photographers, writers, actors, and campaigners share personal views on the spirit of home.

Home: A Celebration is a thoughtful and uplifting book to reread time and time again. It is a poetic homage to the sanctuary and is filled with personal insight, comedy, inventiveness, joy, and poignancy. Each notable participant offers an offering – either a personal text or work of art – on what home means to them through the lenses of their crafts and hobbies. Author Jon Meacham describes books as the houses in his life’s emotional architecture. The magnificent garden at Oberto Gili’s property in northwest Italy is captured on camera.

A recipe from Alice Waters’ backyard garden is offered. Aspects of their work that define home to interior designers like Nina Campbell, Steven Gambrel, and Kelly Wearstler are shared. Other authors with noteworthy works include Gloria Steinem, Joan Juliet Buck, Julian Fellowes, John Grisham, Jill Kargman, and Joyce Carol Oates.
