Sometimes we all need a place to go to be alone, feel inspired and recharge in order to become our highest versions. Now imagine the manifestation it can lead to if introduced at a young age.

With a vision deeper than your traditional summer camp model or school trip, the Good G.R.A.C.E. Annual Art Retreat is a space dedicated to uplifting children in a completely free discovery process. By putting the tools, resources, conversations and encouragement within reach, we hope to release any pressure holding them back from being simply creative.

By [G]iving, [R]eceiving, [A]nd [C]reating [E]nergy, our annual art retreats will unite children with artists and mentors through a series of workshops, counseling, and guided meditations. During this time children will be encouraged to explore their curiosity in photography, design, illustration, journalism, culinary, music and entertainment.

Similar to our Plant Your Seed fundraisers, daily practices of yoga, meditation, and healthy eating will be tied to the foundation of the experience. Block days will also host tutorials in each designated field of art, with a hands on approach that will allow children to gain a tangible takeaway created during their time. Whether that be a film-reel, a self-portrait painted on a wrapped canvas, photo series, or musical arrangement - no child will walk away uninspired.

Destination and occupancy dependent on projected fundraising by March 2020, with a tentative retreat date slated for July 2020.
