Join us for Zen Zen Zo’s 2024 ARTIST RETREAT, facilitated by Dr. Lynne Bradley and award-winning poet Chalise van Wyngaardt (Boy Renaissance). This immersive weekend retreat is designed to recharge and reinspire artists and creatives across various disciplines, providing a space for reflection and connection in our all-too-busy contemporary lives. It is also open to non-artists looking to give themselves the gift of tapping into their creativity and rediscovering balance.
Incorporating a rejuvenating mix of yoga, creative writing, actor training, and wellbeing education – this retreat is
a must for those feeling the need to slow down, rebalance and reconnect to their creativity.
