23-29 May 2026 | 📍Bonavista PeninsulaSuppose you're the kind of person who emerges from a gallery or artist's studio imbued with the desire for creative self-expression. In that case, you're a likely candidate to fall under the enchanting spell of Newfoundland and Labrador! A place that offers a unique blend of untamed wilderness and centuries-old coastal communities, a juxtaposition that is sure to intrigue and excite your creative senses. This is the perfect artistic retreat for you - a place that will surely pique your interest and stimulate your artistic inspiration.
Workshop designed for photographers and plein-air painters.
More than just an artist's retreat, this is a celebration of creativity that welcomes everyone, regardless of their artistic level or ability. Discover a coastline that exudes 'mystery' even to those living there. While there is so much to see in Newfoundland and Labrador, this field workshop, a rare opportunity, is timed to coincide with the historic arrival of the icebergs that travel south from Greenland.
These majestic, floating sculptures offer a chance to marvel at the power of nature, ponder the mysteries of our world, and embark on an adventure like no other. To illustrate their size, icebergs that calve off the 10,000-year-old Jakobshavn Glacier in Greenland are typically as large as a 60-storey building. By the time these behemoths reach Newfoundland and Labrador, many are still in the 30- to 40-storey range. In contrast, others may have hollowed out, some featuring arches and turrets that resemble a castle sculpted by waves. Iceberg chasing can be unpredictable; patience, timing, and a bit of luck are all part of the adventure. This unpredictability, the thrill of not knowing what you'll see next, adds a thrilling element to the adventure, keeping everyone engaged and excited. While some icebergs are shy and love to hide in coves or in a fogbank, others present themselves at close range.
While we anticipate seeing icebergs, the journey is not just about icebergs. The journey is about exploring the diverse natural experiences that Newfoundland and Labrador has to offer. We'll explore remote outports, coastal landforms, and wildlife hotspots, surrounded by dramatic coastlines, sweeping barrens, and thick boreal forests. These diverse landscapes, each offering a unique experience, from exploring remote outports to spotting diverse wildlife, will keep you intrigued and engaged throughout the journey.
