Artists Retreat – Winter 2024

“OHCA retreats offer a rare, deepening experience. In the expanse of time, the quiet and the connection to friends working nearby, my confidence and powers of insight are strengthened.”
   – Candis Cousins

Monday to Friday,
February 19–23, 2024
9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

OHCA is once again offering a week-long ARTIST RETREAT.

This is a 5-day opportunity for artists to work independently but in the company of other dedicated artists. This is not a workshop, and there will be no instruction. What there will be is an opportunity for serious self-directed artists to work in a quiet atmosphere for a sustained period of time, working together but independently in the spirit of creativity.

The Retreat is open to anyone who agrees to some simple rules:

• There is to be no talking except for quietly outside during the hours of 9-5.
• No music is allowed except with earphones.
• No visitors.
• Participants will be responsible for their own lunch and art supplies unless otherwise designated.
• Artists may leave their supplies and work set up during the week and will be required to clean up afterwards.

Space is limited to 5 visual artists and 1 writer.
Space allocations will be determined by the group.

Friday afternoon everyone gets together to socialize and share their work/process.

Week-long retreat: $180 | $150 OHCA members.
