creative workshops and retreats

Our workshops are designed to inspire and support your creativity through intentional craft-play. Projects emphasize process over result, exploration over arrival. We always provide abundant and exciting materials to work with having discovered that much like in a kitchen, a dish is elevated with good ingredients.

We select projects focused to encourage inner exploration, instinctual creativity and joyful discovery.
