Essensual
A Creativity Retreat for Women-Identified and Gender Non-Conforming Folks
Come connect with your "essensual" nature (essence, essential, sensual) through intuitive painting, and playful explorations of movement, breath, and sound.
Enjoy delicious plant-based and gluten-free meals, gentle walks on the sacred land of the Laguna de Santa Rosa, and view the magnificent stars from a hot tub under the dark night.
Beginning and continuing painters welcome, no previous experience needed.
Retreat led by Claudia Erzinger, Alyssa Cox, and Maria Freebairn-Smith
