Step away from the pace of everyday life and join us for a half-day retreat centered on creativity, ritual, and intentional rest. This collaborative experience brings together artists and wellness practitioners from our community for a morning of making, movement, and mindful connection.
Together with Sora Matcha, we’ll explore the beauty of slowing down through hands-on creativity and shared ritual. The matcha portion of this experience is offered in collaboration with Hmong practitioners in our community, whose lived experience and cultural knowledge guide this practice as a grounding ritual centered on care, presence, and intentional gathering.
Guests will hand-build their own ceramic matcha bowl or mug, learning simple clay techniques to shape a functional piece you’ll use in your future tea practice. You’ll also take part in a guided matcha workshop with Sora Matcha, where you’ll learn the basics of preparing and enjoying matcha with care and intention.
Throughout the retreat, you’ll move through a series of calming experiences designed to nourish both body and mind. Guests may choose to participate in a gentle yoga session led by Samantha or opt into a quiet art journaling experience guided by Sadie, offering two different ways to slow down and connect with the present moment.
Midway through the retreat, guests will pause to enjoy a thoughtfully prepared brunch creating time to relax, connect, and enjoy the community forming around the table.
This retreat is designed to be welcoming, restorative, and deeply creative — a chance to reconnect with yourself while making something meaningful with your hands.
