WHO SAID CAMP IS FOR KIDS?
Welcome to Art Camp for Women, the best women’s vacation ever. We have created camp with the wants and needs of women in mind – leading edge art classes, exciting instructors, healthy delicious food, wine, chocolate and cozy beds. Camp is held at Snow Mountain Ranch outside Winter Park, Colorado in the Rocky Mountains.
Beautiful Meal
This year we are bringing back Mini Camp and adding a Deluxe Camp as well as a Mini-Deluxe Camp to the line up. This is in addition to our regular camp sessions which we have also improved and now have dubbed “The Works!”
We have “The Works!” both in June and October.
This way women can choose from four different camp scenarios each with it’s own price point. Hopefully having additional choices will allow more women the opportunity to join us at Art Camp for Women.
With all these changes – we want to point out that our best part is staying the same. Mainly, that all art supplies, lodging, meals, happy hour and classes are included in the cost of your camp.
We have all new classes lined up for you this year.
In June 2012 we will be offering Mini Camp, Deluxe Camp and “The Works!”
For June Mini Camp there will be classes in:
Mixed Media Arts Art Journaling, with Lori Wostl
Fiber Arts – Disperse Dyes, with Lorri Flint
Digital Arts – Blog Design & Set-Up with Beth Hayden
For June Deluxe Camp we will have:
Special Mixed Media Guest Artist Carol Sloan bringing us tons of fun and skills with Bookmaking with Carol Sloan
The June version of “The Works!” includes both the Mini Camp and the Deluxe Camp as described above.
- Mini Camp 2010
For the first time ever, we are offering the option to take a blogging class. If you are over thirty you are surrounded by the digital age and women of all walks of life have shown a huge interest in blogs, social media and digital photography. By the end of your Blogging with Beth class you will have your own blog – complete with pictures and posts – ready to roll once you get home.
In October 2012 we will be offering Mini-Deluxe Camp, Deluxe Camp and “The Works!”
For October Mini-Deluxe Camp we very excited to have Special Guest Artist Instructor Carla Sonheim
For the October Deluxe Camp we are beyond delighted to have a return visit by Special Guest Artist Instructor Kelli Nina Perkins (YIPPEE)
The October version of “The Works!” includes both the Mini-Deluxe Camp and Deluxe Camp (with two Special-Guest Artist Instructors) for the Ice Cream Sundae of all art vacations. Both the guest artists for October are busily at work creating special classes for Art Camp. You will be amazed at what they come up with! Stay tuned for updates.
The suitcase on the right is entirely art supplies. The smaller bag has my clothes and toiletries.
Art Supplies: Let’s talk about supplies. At that last retreat, we went together as business partners. We are smart travelers and managed to share heat guns, jewelry tools and other large items. Even so, between us we had two large suitcases with a total weight of 93 pounds of art supplies. Paying extra luggage fees was even more frustrating when, at the end of the week, we had only used a small portion of those supplies. We do not want you to arrive at camp frazzled and sore from hauling a bunch of bulky luggage, so ALL your art supplies are included.
Relax and Play: Art Camp for Women is kept small on purpose. There is no need to rush around coming and going. If you want, you can roll out of bed, stroll to the dining area and eat breakfast in your pajamas. We have included plenty of time for a quiet walk, an evening in front of the fire with a good book, or puttering around in the art room while chatting with friends, new and old.
Yummy Food: We have delicious food prepared just for us by our chefs! We start the day with a breakfast buffet of fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, baked breads, jams and eggs to order. Breakfast is available from 7:30 until 8:30. At noon we break for lunch which is typically a variety of scrumptious soups, salads and sandwiches. Happy Hour with wine and appetizers is at 4:30 and Dinner is at 6:00. Dessert will be available by 8:30 every evening. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day to keep you energized and ready to play.
Cost: At Art Camp for Women we include everything except your transportation, in one set cost – your lodging, your meals, snacks, your wine and chocolate, and even your art supplies.
For the first time this year - if you choose to take our Blogging Class – there will be an additional fee of $85.00 to register your blog.
Most retreats have many additional costs on your own, so take the time to click on the link to compare costs.
Wear your PJs to breakfast!
The Facilities: Snow Mountain Ranch, Winter Park, Colorado has miles of walking trails, an Olympic-size swimming pool and a sauna.

Scenery at Snow Mountain Ranch
The scenery is spectacular and the wildlife is abundant. We urge you to bring and carry a camera with you. We often see deer and a family of fox. Not so often, we see moose, elk, coyotes and from time-to-time a bear. There are other interesting sights, a stream, barns and other out buildings from the early 1900s, so there is very little chance of being bored.
Camaraderie: If you need some down time we provide different art magazines and books for your reading enjoyment, around the fireplace or in bed if you prefer. At every camp we get into discussions about our favorite books and what movies we are watching. The camaraderie of other women can be quite fun and comfortable.

We would be delighted to hear from you as we love to talk about camp. Thank you for stopping by.
