Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
World Calendar Day
World Household Map Day
A day for knowing where things are kept, why nobody can find the tape, and how a home quietly teaches its own geography.
Regional/Cultural Day
Fête de Saint François
The feast of Saint Francis of Assisi is observed at the Chapelle Sainte-Dévote and the Convent of the Franciscan Sisters in Monaco. Saint Francis is the patron saint of ecology, and the celebration has taken on a new significance under Prince Albert II, who has made environmental protection the defining cause of his reign. The Prince Albert II Foundation, founded in 2006, funds projects in climate change, biodiversity, and water resources, and the Prince has traveled to both poles to draw attention to the climate crisis. The Fête de Saint François is a quiet, contemplative day : a reminder that even in a principality built on wealth and luxury, there is room for humility and care for creation.
Regional/Cultural Day
Animals of Taiwan Day
You explore Taiwan's unique Formosan black bears, Taiwanese serows, and numerous endemic bird species across the island. You notice that Taiwanese people most commonly keep cats, dogs, and fish as their household pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
