Paracosmos: Q3 2017
Available Now!
All proceeds generated by Paracosmos are gifted towards various community programs. As we expand our sense of community, we aim to create impactful and lasting creative relationships. For Paracosmos Q3 2017, we partnered with the Red Hook Art Project, a local volunteer-based mentoring program that provides gifted and under-served kids with free education in the arts.

Paracosmonauts are invited to explore a new theme or idea every month. These prompts are intended to loosely unify the next 30 days of content without bogging down submissions with rigid constraints. Got a pet topic? Toss it up on the current community query!
The idea with the most votes then becomes the next lens through which Paracosmos takes shape. Anything from villainous lairs to super-powered megaflora can be next month’s flavor – propose your own using the new idea button or show some support for existing suggestions.
