Atlas Obscura
Atlas Obscura describes itself as a “global community of explorers” who have compiled a database of over 21,177 hidden (or lesser known) places and foods from around the world. Atlas Obscura highlights the unusual and the wondrous, be it a tree or stone with an urban legend or a dairy farm that specializes in moose cheese. With Atlas Obscura’s wide range of online experiences on Zoom you can explore far corners of the country from your computer or tablet and engage in activities you never even knew you wanted to try. Most of the experiences allow participants to interact with the host and other attendees through a chat feature or through audio. 1 ticket is good for access from 1 device, so everyone in your household can participate. Atlas Obscura also reports on unusual history, scientific marvels, and more, all of which can be read on their website.
