Concentric Travel

Arts, Culture, and Entertainment, Travel & Hospitality

Concentric Travel

Concentric Travel is a cultural travel platform that connects travelers with artisan workshops and craft-focused journeys around the world. Rather than centering travel around traditional sightseeing, Concentric Travel is built on the belief that the most meaningful way to understand a place is through its living craft traditions and the people who sustain them.

The platform curates immersive, small-group experiences led by master artisans, including ceramicists, woodworkers, textile artists, metalworkers, and other makers whose practices are deeply rooted in local culture. Travelers participate directly in workshops, learning techniques in working studios while gaining insight into the cultural, historical, and material contexts behind each craft.

In addition to individual workshops, Concentric Travel designs multi-day, craft-focused tours that thoughtfully combine studio time with regional exploration. These journeys are intentionally intimate, allowing for hands-on learning, meaningful connection, and a slower, more intentional way of traveling. Participants often return home with objects they’ve made, new skills, and a deeper understanding of place.

Beyond a great-tasting and award-winning product, Rocco set out on a mission to make wine "cool" for a new generation of wine drinkers. As a minority who identifies as a Black/mixed race gay man, he also saw an urgent need for more diversity and inclusivity in the beverage alcohol industry, which is why Cool Cat is marketed as inclusive of all genders, ethnicities and sexual orientations.

Cristina Fowler Consulting

Keeping an arts organization going is hard in the best of times, and there comes a point (or many points) in any organization where you reach a crossroads. You love the work you're putting out there, but you don't quite have the systems in place to support your next phase. Or perhaps you find yourself in a time of transition among your leadership or board.

That's where I come in. With a background in various nonprofit sectors ranging from the arts to higher education, my passion lies in maximizing the impact of small to mid-sized performing arts organizations.
