Euro summer on the books - family time, lots of swims, analog moments and adventure - one for the books #analoglife by @aed311

What an epic celebration of @kellydriscollgram we laughed and danced and drank and were very very merry by @aed311

Our annual pilgrimage to the homeland to celebrate, feast and bask in the incredible clear #lakepemi immersed in nature - being with family and creating new traditions and connections for our family - what a gift Canada 🇨🇦 by @aed311

I’ve been quiet (er, Analog, lately) but Anne and I have been putting a lot of love into Launch Pad Foundation this summer and we’re eager to share what we’ve been building — we want to expand the world of people doing cool stuff through the @launchpadfoundation so we’re recruiting a new group of creators who want to build community and bring people together. Here’s what that has looked like this year! 👉

@aed311 leading a hike through the fog at an Analog Session last spring, with Gestalt work and time to reconnect in nature.

@jessicamartinart sharing the story of @peptockids. We found each other just as LPF was beginning its work in fiscal sponsorship, and we learned the ropes alongside her. Now we’re celebrating Peptoc’s graduation to its own 501(c)(3). We’re grateful she helped us get here.

And Tim Ryan—who you may know as @timoteo_gigante —doing what he loves at an Analog Session. Earlier this year, we were fortunate to support him with fiscal sponsorship in founding @lagunalab_ , a new space in Sonoma County and part of our Spark community.

Behind each of these moments is someone who cared enough to bring people together. People turning their passion into purpose.

We’d love to help more people take that step. If you’re already pouring yourself into a community project—or have an idea you’re ready to try—our Fall 2026 Spark applications are open.

You lead the work. LPF provides a charitable home, practical support, and a way to raise tax-deductible donations without starting a nonprofit of your own.

Apply by October 10 at lp.foundation. Or send this to someone whose labor of love is ready for our support. by @aed311

This organization was the first project @launchpadfoundation - we are so proud to have been a very small part of it - here’s to the good kind of fire @peptockids gogogo! by @aed311

To everyone who has already donated, shared, or reached out — thank you.

We’re halfway through this 10-day fundraiser, and every gift is helping show that Analog Reunion matters to this community.

This year felt like the fullest expression of the vision yet.

Now we’re asking for your help carrying it forward.

If Analog moved you, made you feel present, or reminded you how good it feels to gather in real life, please donate today.

I don’t know too many people who love music as much as we do, but two of those people are definitely @noahdorrance and @kellydorrance

We are so excited to be going to the @bloodrootramble this weekend. It is such a gift to Healdsburg and to Sonoma County.

Everything Noah and Kelly do to put on this amazing music festival — in support of an issue so close to their hearts and our community’s heart, ending gun violence — is incredible.

Music has been a thread and connection point throughout our relationship from the very beginning, since we first bonded over “Bodhisattva” — the live version, of course.

So we can say from the heart: we know how much effort it takes to put on a music festival that is local, independent, and world-class and we appreciate everything you guys do for this community.

These things are such a labor of love. There is an unbelievable investment involved in pulling something like this together. It is a heroic effort.. exhausting and yet exhilarating.

Then the weekend arrives, the music starts, and it becomes such a beautiful thing. The music is healing. It brings the community together in exactly the way we dream about for the other 364 days a year.

What a gift we have in Healdsburg, with this absolute bounty of goodness of music (and wine) right in our backyard. It is so important not to take it for granted.

If you don’t have your tickets yet, we know how busy this time of year is. But grabbing a ticket and supporting something like The Ramble is what keeps things like this around. These are the things that make our lives so rich.

Whatever you’ve got planned this weekend, it is worth considering whether you want to be at The Ramble — because it is going to be the place to be.

We will definitely be there, filled with gratitude for Noah, Kelly, their team, their supporters, and everyone who gives so much of themselves to make this happen.

Thank you. We can’t wait to see you out there. ❤️🎶

Transparency matters.

When we ask you to support something — with your money, time, energy, or belief — we believe you deserve to know what you’re supporting. That’s why we publish this impact report: to share what this work costs, where support comes from, and why it matters.

Analog started the way so many Launch Pad Foundation sparks do: with a simple belief in bringing people together.

It began in our backyard, by the creek. For the past three years, it has been a three-day festival. And this year, the vision felt fully realized — music, nature, art, conversation, community, and the kind of in-person connection so many of us are hungry for.

But there is more work to do.

We live in a chaotic world, and so many people feel more disconnected than ever. That is why analog matters. Because getting together in person matters.

Over the last year, Launch Pad Foundation has grown from supporting 6 local community organizations to more than 30. We’re proud of that work, and we’ll keep growing — supporting the organizers, artists, builders, and neighbors creating real-life experiences that bring people together.

This is also the last year we can carry Analog without continued support from the community.

To learn more, read the impact report, or support the work, visit the Launch Pad Foundation @launchpadfoundation website linked in bio.

Thank you for believing in places to gather.
