More advanced students can hone their techniques and improve their skills in our advanced classes. All workshops are taught by professional local artist Michelle Guitard. Michelle studied fine arts at Georgian College and York University where she was honored with two scholarships in both print making and painting.

🇲🇽 SAN MIGUEL DE ALLENDE, MEXICO! 🇲🇽

❤️ ONLY ONE DOUBLE ROOM LEFT!! ❤️

November 4–11, 2026

We are so happy to be returning to the magical city of San Miguel de Allende, named the World’s Best City in 2026 by Travel + Leisure!

CULTURE • CREATIVITY • COMMUNITY

Join artists Michelle Guitard and Stephanie Danforth for an unforgettable week of art, connection, exploration and inspiration in the heart of Mexico.

We’ll be staying in a beautiful historic Casa in the heart of San Miguel, surrounded by vibrant colours, extraordinary architecture, cobblestone streets, incredible food and a thriving artistic community.

This retreat is about so much more than making art. It’s about giving yourself the time and space to explore your creativity, discover new possibilities, form meaningful friendships and reconnect with your artistic spirit.

Whether you’re picking up a paintbrush for the very first time or have been creating for years, all levels of artistic ability are welcome. Come exactly as you are. We’ll meet you wherever you are on your creative journey.

Expect beautiful days filled with art, culture, laughter, shared meals, exploration and the kind of connections that stay with you long after you return home.

✨ ONE DOUBLE ROOM REMAINING!

📍 San Miguel de Allende, Mexico 📅 November 4–11, 2026

The traveller’s wild heart ❤️
was never meant to stay still.

It follows the pull of distant places,
the promise of something not yet known,
the beauty waiting around the next corner.

It wanders.
It creates.
It gets lost sometimes—
and somehow finds its way.

Follow your creative heart.
Trust where it leads.

The adventure begins. ✨🇮🇹
