Awaken your creativity as winter fades and color returns
Saturday, March 21st from 9am - 6pm & Sunday, March 22nd from 9am-4pm
Instructors: Laura Andrews, Caroline Porter, Dominique Venzant, & Sally Wightkin
This retreat features four 2-hour blocks of art making, including block printing, watercolor, calligraphy, art journaling and one artist lecture. Lunch will be provided both days along with an assortment of breakfast items and coffee in the mornings.
As the gray hush of winter lifts, join us for a two-day retreat designed to gently re-ignite your artist spirit. March Artist Recharge invites beginners and hobby artists into a warm, welcoming space to make, play, and reconnect with what pulls you toward the page, the brush, and the studio.
Across a lineup of guided art-making sessions led by local fine arts instructors, you’ll explore approachable mediums and low-pressure techniques meant to loosen you up after the stillness of winter. Whether you come to experiment, to reset your routine, or simply to be around other people who make things, this weekend offers both structure and breathing room.
Between sessions, enjoy intentional time to connect with fellow creatives: share what you’re working on, what you’re stuck on, or simply what you’re excited to try next. Leave not with a polished masterpiece, but with momentum, ideas, and a renewed sense of possibility as color returns to the world around you.
Space is limited, sign up today!
