10 Ways Art Camp for Women Differs from Other Art Retreats

We are in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado

1. We are smaller – we can accommodate a maximum of 20 women per camp session, so we are much quieter with less hustle and bustle.

2. We supply all the art materials – this allows you to try new art media using the best supplies available, without having to buy a bunch of stuff you may never use. And packing for camp is so easy!

3. We offer fewer classes than the larger art camp venues, but the campers get to try every one of them (except for Mini-Camp where you choose between Blog Design/Set Up and Disperse Dyes). We feature different artist/instructors for each Camp session.  We will have a variety of mixed media art classes including book making, art journaling, embellishment and more.  Each instructor creates a class rich in technique AND we build in time so you go home with a finished project!

4. You get more personal attention from the instructors – in addition, one of our partners is a professional life coach and offers a  life coaching session at no additional cost. The coaching ranges from “what do I want to do with my life?” to “how do I get more organized around my art?”

5. All meals are prepared by a chef and are delicious AND healthy; we can accomodate various diets including vegetarians.  And of course there is always wine, chocolate and a late evening dessert.

6.  The art studio is open around the clock – some time in the course of the week, you might find yourself staying up until midnight in your pajamas to finish your favorite project (and it’s ok with us if you end up wearing your pj’s the next day). No problem, camp is held in comfortable lodges with all of the modern conveniences, yet away from the urban hustle.

7. Smaller numbers allow for friendships to develop – you are together much of the time, i.e. classes and meals, and you get to know women you might never have met otherwise. Of course people split into smaller groups, some people go hiking while others continue working on a project. Some people do the morning Sun Salutation Yoga while others sleep in. There is also plenty of room for time to yourself.

8. Our excursions involve going on a Ranger lead talk at a nearby pioneer homestead and if you wish, daily walks through the splendors of nature. And really, the Rocky Mountains rival the natural wonders of any place in the world. We predict warm sunny days with crisp cool nights, both in the spring and at the peak of our fall foliage season.

9. We offer carefree relaxation. We are out in the mountains, and if you don’t want to wear makeup, no one will care. You will not need to get into a car the entire time if you don’t want to.

10. Wildlife abounds – at Camp you may see deer, elk, moose, fox, or even a bear.   A herd of deer might be seen from the kitchen window.
