Retreat Details
This retreat was sold-out in 2023, so we are offering it again! Join artist Caroline Simas and writer Kathy Izard for three days of creating in the beautiful coastal town of Beaufort, SC.
You don’t not need to be a serious artist or writer to attend. We love encouraging women to re-connect to their creative side (yes! We all are creative!) By day will be inspired by the sand and the sea in painting and writing and at night, enjoying fabulous dinners with women, like you, who come to relax and have a great time.
We’ve been known to have a little castle-building contest, try some writing by moonlight, take a wonder walk on the beach and have a dance party or two. Our retreats are starting to have a following so don’t miss your chance to see what Watercolors, Words and Waves might hold for you!
What Past Participants Had to Say about our retreats:
Kathy Izard is a gifted leader and communicator, and she coaxes those same qualities out of her seminar participants. With creativity and humor, she provides opportunities for everyone to fully participate, and to learn new things about themselves and each other in the process.
Liza Roberts, Raleigh, NC
Kathy and Caroline’s workshops are a refreshing dose of creativity combined with thought-provoking activities. Your time will be well-spent and leave you feeling enriched and inspired with lots of fun along the way!
