The Farms: Art Retreat
All levels of artists are invited to experience art in a new way at our Art Retreat in the Mansion on Feb. 19-21 (Monday — Wednesday). Get creative and learn something new in a variety of workshops – choose what is most appealing to you! You’ll have the opportunity to learn to cyanotype, make a felt scarf, work with Santorini stones, paint on canvas, take part in gelatin plate printing, create a beaded brooch and more! See a full schedule here.
There will also be plenty of downtime to relax with yoga and enjoy the company of fellow art lovers over food and drinks! Registration includes all meals* (Monday lunch through Wednesday breakfast) and materials. A cash bar will be available Monday and Tuesday evening.
$295/person. Register here by Feb. 12. All sales are final.
