Oh yeah, we are back for another summer season of fun, friendship, food, and CLAY creativity!! This year is more of the same deliciousness but now with a bonus painting session with Erin!

You’ll still get yoga! You’ll still get healthy, fresh, and the tastiest of food! You’ll still learn more than you can possibly absorb! You’ll still get bonfires! You’ll still make friends! You’ll still dance! TRY TO REMAIN CALM.

You’ll get to experience all this at the wonderful Bell Moon Arts, an art retreat just outside of Hayesville, North Carolina. Located by a bubbling creek and nestled in the mountains, we get to commune with nature, new friends, clay, and, most importantly, ourselves. Our retreat offers us wonderful spaces to create and relax. You will feel welcomed and refreshed. 

You can opt for either an affordable or perhaps a posh local air b and b, you can stay in a quaint yurt right on the property, you can pack your own tent, or you can even bring a camper. We are happy to hook you up with a new friend if you’d like to share accommodations! We do offer a heads up to those of you who might require a little luxury —> we won’t have AC, we usually eat outside, you might get a stray rain shower, we do have little things that fly and they aren’t all pretty little birds, and you probably will get dirty. 

No experience necessary. If you are breathing you are qualified. All we ask is that you arrive with an open mind and an open heart. We can’t wait to meet you or, for our returning friends, see you again!! Registration is limited to 15. We don’t offer refunds because we are saving space just for you. If you can’t make it you are welcome to send someone in your place or we might have a waiting list participant interested. Please reach out with any questions. 

Our meals are thoughtfully prepared by our hostess with the mostess, Erin. If you have any food requirements or allergies please let us know. You will not be disappointed by the healthy, fresh and creative options. You are welcome to bring your own adult beverages to share.
