Lillstreet Art Center Creative Retreat: Travel Photography
Take a day-off from the hustle and bustle of city living with Lillstreet! Our one-day retreats offer you the chance to relax and renew as you immerse yourself in the creative process. Each retreat will be a unique combination of a 75-minute yoga class (for all levels), healthy catered lunch and three-hours of hands-on art instruction. Everyone will leave the retreat with handmade artwork!
Yoga class will be taught by Bloom Yoga© instructors in a hatha/gentle vinyasa style with appropriate modifications offered for students of all levels. Class will focus on connecting breath and movement in a conscious way to prime the body and mind for a creative afternoon. Each art workshop will be instructed by an accomplished Lillstreet teaching artist.
