Our workshops are centered around unlocking creativity. There are no prerequisite skills required, and a lot of the work can apply to a variety of creative mediums. We do a lot of work around idea generation, understanding our intrinsic creativity and how to access it, and collaborative prompt based activities. Certain retreats include more skill-based workshops, which vary by location.

YES! Our retreats are open to creatives of all kinds - whether you used to have a regular art-making practice and haven’t touched it in years, have never made art but want to incorporate creativity into your life, or are just looking to try something new. If you are open, curious, and looking to walk through the world with more play, intention and creativity, you are a good fit.

While our workshops are more centered around creativity than business, a lot of previous attendees have found our retreats to be helpful when starting a creative business. Our retreats attract an array of professional creatives and the community element is invaluable. We have lots of attendees who come sharing advice, contract templates, and skills with each other! We are also happy to answer any business related questions.

This is a backcountry camping, white water rafting trip. No camping or rafting experience is required, however you need to be able to walk over sandy and rocky terrain at camp, and lift and carry your own bag. Other than that it is challenge by choice! We will have professional guides from White Otter rowing boats, with optional days where you can paddle sections.

Once you fill out the form on the retreats page, we will send you an email with a link to pay your deposit to secure your spot. We’ll email you a receipt and welcome letter to confirm your reservation, along with a complete informational packet to help you plan, prepare and pack for your retreat. The final remaining balance is due, in full, 90 days prior to your trip and is non-refundable.
