RIPPLE

Restorative Visual Art Retreats for Women

This is an exciting, NEW program for 2011-2012 Between careers, children, and households, many women find it difficult to set aside time to tap into the creative energy that defines them. Participation in a restorative retreat steeped in the visual arts in Crested Butte allows for that time and space to connect with one’s inner visions and express them in a supportive environment. Designed to awaken and foster women’s innate creative energy, our methods help women make a connection to the self, engage in a restorative experience, and create a positive shift in personal creative growth. The ultimate goal of Ripple workshops is “the RIPPLE effect,” whereby women take their newfound confidence, creative energy, and enthusiasm back to their everyday lives, changing the world one woman at a time. We are certain of the power of women to affect the world positively, and because Ripple serves to authentically reconnect women to their innate, unique creativity and vision, an experience at Ripple contributes to making the world a better place. Ripple’s 3-day visual art retreats are for women interested in having an experience. Choose from:

• Painting
• Drawing
• Photography
• Ceramics
• Land Art
• Jewlery Making

At Ripple, engage in your chosen visual art, yoga, and relaxation, while surrounded and inspired by the breathtaking and beautiful scenery in the Rocky Mountains of Crested Butte, Colorado. Our workshops are innovative, restorative, and deliciously creative, while our environment is comfortable, elegant, and personalized.
