Is your heart craving to focus on that creative project you’ve been longing to bring into being?
What if you gave yourself the time and space to lovingly tend to your creative practice while immersed in a conscious and supportive community?
Calling in artists and creators of all kinds to join us for 5 days of community-supported creative practice, nourishing food, meditation, play and rejuvenating rest.
Let’s dance and sing together! We’ll talk about our feelings!
We can play in the snow! Warm up in the hot tub!
Ooo and aaa at the variety of multimedia art projects we’ll get to create!
A cozy and vibrant immersive experience for anyone seeking restoration, creativity, and community to enliven the cold season. Come with an art project you have been birthing or create something totally new during your stay.

What to expect
Let us gather during the final moments of winter's silence at the Winter Warmth Art Retreat. Together we will nourish our bodies with delicious home cooked meals, co-create rituals to deepen into our creative hearts, enjoy the hot tub and sauna on site, play in the waters of our creativity, and practice self-care to soothe our spirits.
We invite you to bring a project you would like to work on — such as a painting, a collection of poems, a blanket you have been weaving, your instruments to work on your upcoming album, a script, a ritual, a workshop, or whatever else your brilliant mind would like to focus on during the week.
There will be between 10 - 15 creatives present.
