In the next four months, I will be attending three art retreats. If you have been to a retreat already, then I know I am preaching to the choir. But if you haven't yet attended an art retreat...believe me when I say that it is an experience not be missed. Not only do you have hours of uninterrupted time when your only job is to make art (!) but you get to do it surrounded by a group of peeps that get ya. I mean really get ya. I enter every retreat with excited anticipation and I leave every retreat with memories that inspire me long after the art party is over. Not to mention many new friends! Every retreat has its own personality and unique highlights. And truly, every retreat is an adventure to remember.
I would love to meet you at one of the retreats I will be attending:
First up is CREATE mixed media retreat in Somerset, NJ, which runs from 7/17 to 7/21. I will be teaching 4 classes and selling my artwork at The Artists' Faire on 7/19.
Later this month, from 7/29 to 8/6, I will be at Art Unraveled in Phoenix, AZ for the first time. I will be teaching 3 workshops, selling artwork alongside over 55 (!) over vendors at the Shopping Extravaganza on 8/3, and am thrilled to be hosting an artist panel as part of the opening events on 7/29.
Later in the year, from 10/10 to 10/14, I will be at Art is You in Stamford, CT. I will be teaching 3 classes and vending at a special faculty vending event on 10/11.

Believe me, if I could get there I would be there!
Hi Seth! CREATE in Somerset, NJ, will be my first art retreat, and I am very excited to be signed up for your Basic Bookbinding course on Sunday morning. Bookbinding is one of those things that I have wanted to learn for such a long time, and I've purchased too many books with the idea that I would teach myself. It has become obvious that I need an instructor to make it happen, and I'm excited for your class! See you on Friday night at the Artists' Faire! --Andria
I'm going to get to meet you in Stamford as my sister and I will be taking one of your classes. I've been kind of removed from the circuit living in Alaska all these years so I am looking forward to the experience.
Have fun Seth...AND don't forget, sleep is necessary to life too.
What fun. Wish we were back in Jersey for a little bit!
As I have said before, we will meet up one of these days. I missed out on your future dates with Orly. it filled in a nano-second! I snoozed, I "loozed"!
But it will happen. And, I so enjoyed your blog about retreats. Thanks for sharing.
I had the best time last year in Somerset and Stamford, and am reapeating both venues this year! What fun to see the group photo from your Dossier class, with me dead center in my trusty Lake George tshirt, LOL.
Not taking any classes with you this time, but hope to see you.
no one would believe how fantastic this is unless they'd been to one. It's indescribable. I wish I could be at one of these. I can't wait to take one of your classes!
