These retreats give you time, space, and structure to work creatively.

We bring together creative writers, painters, yoga practitioners, and those interested in sustainability, nature and self-development.

Imagine the volume of material you could produce if you gave yourself focused time at a
retreat center, were fed three meals a day by talented chefs, and collaborated with other creative individuals.

When you wake every morning to birdsong in an ethically-run estate and live in an empowering community of creative writers and yoga practitioners, you can make headway on even the most daunting creative project.

All retreat activities are optional and are focused on giving you a holistically productive immersion. 

Each day at the retreat, the following activities are available:

• One-on-one manuscript guidance
• Enlivening interdisciplinary group critique
• Early morning yoga
• Direct observation painting instruction
• Pranayama breathwork
• Goal writing and wellness activities
• Delicious healthy food
• Creative writing discussion and exercises

 Partial Scholarships Available–for a limited time only. Simply mention your need in your application. 

We believe in offering a full array of activities that bring together a dynamic group of participants with varied interests and backgrounds. Our retreats feature daily yoga, pranayama (breathwork), painting, wellness activities and nature walks in addition to creative writing critique and one-on-one manuscript guidance.

Would you like to integrate into your writing process an exciting relationship between the environment and your creativity and self-development removed of any diversion?

You have the option of working in a variety of modes during the retreat. Each participant is

invited to work on a story or poem collection, to write a daily journal cataloging personal narrative, and/or keep a sketchbook.

At our retreats, painters and writers can join together in critique, devoting their free time to work on their own creative projects. All participants, whether pursuing writing, painting, yoga, or some combination of these endeavors, can benefit evenly from group activities, workshops, one-on-one sessions, and free time. Every activity is optional, so participants can choose to do as much or as little as they need.

These programs typically fill well before the deadline and have space for twelve participants only– consider applying soon. If you’re interested, please don’t miss your chance to spend time on a retreat with us!
