Sacred Basecamp invites you to slow down and try your hand at something new. This introductory oil painting session explores the fundamentals of a time-honored medium, in a historic space built nearly a century ago. Flooded with natural light and creative atmosphere, Sacred Basecamp’s upper level great room will become your creative sanctuary for a few hours. Students will leave with a completed original painting — and a deeper understanding of materials, technique, and what their creative hands are capable of. *Please arrive 10 minutes early to allow for introductions. Light lunch and non-alcoholic beverages provided.

What Sets Our Retreats Apart
01 / Options
Our retreats offer multiple options for out of town guests and locals alike. Participants can choose from premium indoor accommodations on-site, camper/van and tent camping options on-site, or commuter options for those who live in the area or would like to stay off-site in other accommodations.
02 / Balance
One of the most valuable parts of a retreat is the new community that’s created among the retreat participants. We balance formal structured group activities with informal opportunities to connect with new friends or rest and reflect.
03 / Collaborative Energy
Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.
