The team at Inner Garden has you covered

As you dive into creative projects, know that your facilitators are standing by to provide assistance, nudges, prompts, and support.

Attending a retreat also means putting yourself in the care of others so you can take a break from the responsibilities of adulting–and our excellent team will ensure that logistics align with your needs.

“Pennie taught me to appreciate that my creativity comes into play in choosing what, when, and how I communicate. Choosing a path to take and then populating that path with words and numbers, painting the picture. Jackie showed me different techniques for using the brush. How to combine colors, how to combine the tools, how to layer the experience, in much the same way that we layer our language.”

We began as college suitemates, then housemates. After graduation and through our separate pursuits of post-grad education, careers, and relationships, we stayed in touch and, on occasion, traveled together. In our 50s, we began supporting each other's creative journeys through check-ins, resource sharing, and attending creative retreats.

We soon realized that creative sharing was our journey and seized the opportunity to develop and imagine our own creative retreat center. In 2023, we launched the Inner Garden Creative Retreat Center and never looked back.

The Inner Garden Creative Retreat Center is infused with the core values and beliefs that we’ve learned in our own individual and shared journeys. As facilitators, we bring the skills and practices of our crafts, but more importantly, we create a safe space for their guests to tap into their own intuition and inner artist and to create from the heart. Holding high vibrational energy in this space, we encourage guests to bask in self-love, self-respect, and self-honor as they explore their own creative process.

How Inner Garden Retreats came to be

“The retreat created a space where I could be both a writer and an artist AND have time to do both and let one feed the other.”
