The Upper Amherst Cove Craft/Art Retreat is just around the corner....it's happening Friday, Saturday and Sunday, September 5-7 (the bus returns Monday). Friday night kick starts the retreat with artist talks and presentations; Saturday and Sunday are filled with workshops....lots of craft and artistic activities. The weekend is open to all - interested and practicing crafts people, Textile Studies students, and the general public from the Bonavista area participate and you're invited to join in the creative fun. Traditionally, presenters and instructors volunteer their expertise for a particular workshop and also participate in workshops themselves. We are looking for workshop leaders. Can you help us?
We will provide you with transportation, accommodations (floor space, maybe bed, your own tent), yummy food, and a guaranteed great time. You will be totally surrounded by the like-minded individuals; see professional studios and how they are set up; do creative things and be inspired! Mike and Lorie Paterson are our hosts, and workshops will take place in and around Paterson Woodworking. It is a truly magnificent place, nestled in a little cove, sheltered from the harshest winds, has a panoramic view of the ocean, whales galore, wood trails - walk to Wolf' Head in just 1/2 an hour and in season pick blueberry's for breakfast pancakes.
