Artists of all levels are invited to experience art in a new way at our Art Retreat on July 17-19
(Friday, 9 a.m. through Sunday, 3 p.m.) in the Mansion. Get creative and learn something
new in a wide variety of workshops by choosing what appeals to you,
including watercolor, printmaking, drawing, Ikebana, and more!
See the full schedule (subject to change) here .

There will also be plenty of downtime to relax and enjoy
the company of fellow art lovers over food and drink.
(Including enjoying the art of music – bring your favorite instrument
if you have one for impromptu jam sessions!)

Registration includes all materials and meals
(Friday lunch through Sunday breakfast).
A bar will be available Friday and Saturday evenings.

This memorable weekend is a great opportunity
to spend quality time with a special family member,
gather a group of friends to inspire each other,
or recharge with a solo getaway. Art Educators can earn up to
13 professional development hours (PDH)!

$375/person. Register here.
Registration will close July 3 or when capacity is reached. 
All sales are final.
