1 a : an undertaking usually involving danger and unknown risks

   b : the encountering of risks (the spirit of adventure)

2 : an exciting or remarkable experience (an adventure in exotic dining)

Use techniques you've never used before. Plumb deep within yourself for a personal sense of adventure. Share your adventures through this exhibit.
