Top 10 Small Art Towns in America
Ashland, OR has recently gained the title of "Top 10 Best Small Art Towns in America"! The art, culture, music, and theater scenes here are unlike any other. Congratulations! You get to learn from some of the Great Artists that helped to give Ashland this title! In your class size of about 8 persons, you will spend 1/2 to 1 day of instruction and hands on implementation with each professional artist. Completing your own pieces while learning their styles and techniques. Taking home with you a "work" taught to you by each artist.
4 or 5 Finished Works of Art
The exact mediums you will be learning and the specific professional artists you will be learning from, will be a surprise! As O.W.R. retreats happen sporadically throughout the year and the focus changes with availability.
You will go home with 3 or 4 of, your very own, finished pieces. Keep them for yourself or give away with "holiday love". Besides going home with your artwork, you will be returning home inspired with a new passion and appreciation for which ever medium you continue to explore
Nourished Relationships
Accommodations are designed for you AND your special person. Whoever that is : BFF, partner, sibling, spouse. In addition, to the 2 of you having many special experiences together this week, you will also get close with others. Every person staying with us this week is here for this same retreat. You already know you have a “Creative Spirit” in common. Have fun discovering what else knits us each together, in this incredible space. Exchange contact info and follow one another’s creative journeys. :)
