Travel Tips

We want to provide enough free time for folks to explore the surroundings .....
Hiking
Horseback riding
Taos Galleries

Though we want to keep this retreat free flowing enough for each participant to explore their inner artist, we also want to provide some structured activities that will encourage interaction and guideance. Therefore, several of us have been throwing about ideas for various workshops. I envision these workshops lasting no more than 1-2 hours, but with proper feedback can either shorten or lengthen them as our participants decide.

Feel free to contact us with more ideas! After all, this is YOUR retreat :)

So here's a rough list of the ideas we are bouncing about right now:
Writing workshop
Drawing workshop
Beading workshop
Knitting workshop
Freeform Music time
Glass painting Workshop

and ... a special afterdinner activity Saturday night!

This schedule is tentative, subject to change according to participant feedback, or my fancies :) This particular version was posted on June 27, 2006. The final schedule (we hope) will be posted by August 5, 2006. Your feedback is being solicited, so feel free to leave comments or email us with YOUR suggestions ;)
