HEART OF SUMMER, Poetry & Art in the Garden, 3-part series

A three-part monthly poetry & art mini retreat series 
with Margaret Hartsook and Lisa Kagan 

“Create space to pause and draw sweetness from each bright thing.”
~ James Crews 

Come create with us under the luminous summer skies, allowing yourself to be transported by the magic of the Pacific Northwest peak summer evenings in this three part monthly mini retreat series. This offering embodies the spirit of a creative retreat paired with summer art camp for adults. Each month we will read and write poetry in the garden as well as engage in play and discovery through a series of nature-based art projects. We will create hanging fiber art pieces inspired by nature’s infinite wisdom of design, explore mask-making incorporating painting and  nature printing, and make mixed media collages featuring natural materials. This monthly retreat series offers you a chance to awaken your creative spark in the majesty of the natural world, cultivate new ways of enriching yourself and your life, and nourish yourself in the supportive, uplifting company of other women.  

This program offers space for creative expression for women of all ages and backgrounds. All women are welcome, including cisgender, transgender, and those whose gender identity aligns with womanhood. No writing or art experience is necessary. All art materials, as well as snacks and drinks, will be provided.

Dates & Times: 
Mondays 6:30pm-9pm on June 16, July 28, August 11

“This Touchstone Retreats program was one of the most soul-nourishing days I've ever spent. The silence of women making things is the most sacred sound I know, and you created a beautiful container for that.”
