Art By the Sea Retreat
Breathe in the salty sea are while enjoying gorgeous panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean.
Have you been feeling uninspired? Do you feel stuck in your art? Do you keep finding excuses to put your creativity off?
If you answered yes to any of these and love the Oregon coast Art by the Sea retreat is the perfect way for you (and your friends) to reconnect with your creativity in a beautiful seaside setting.
I would love to share the inspiring art of mixed media with you and be your guide! Together we’ll spend the week exploring hands-on mixed media techniques, from abstracts to collaging, in our daily workshops. Enjoy strolls along this beach, naps, and free crafting time in your free time.
All this in a seaside hotel with Chef prepared meals and plenty of time to relax and rejuvenate.
Come bask in the Oregon Coast and rekindle your creativity.

Creative Activities
Throughout our time together, we’ll create plenty of mixed media projects. By the time you leave, you’ll feel refreshed and inspired to keep creating long after you’ve left.
We’ll also spend time at the beach, watching sunsets and playing in the sand.
Bring your creative spirit and let mother nature be your guide.
Self-care and Downtime
I firmly believe creativity needs space for quite reflection. We must make time to listen to our hearts and refresh our creative spirits. Taking time from our daily lives while being surrounded by nature is one of the most powerful forms of self-care. Nature has a way of calming the soul, invigorating the senses and inspiring the creative mind.
There will be ample downtime for everyone to find solitude and rejuvenate.
You’ll leave feeling refreshed and inspired to step back into your life with renewed creativity.
Delicious Meals
We’ll enjoy, delicious local dinning.
Mornings will start with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a delicious breakfast. A delicious chef-prepared lunch will be provided. We’ll enjoy scrumptious Chef prepared dinners together at the Adobe Restaurant.
Savor every second!

Once you register for the retreat you will need to contact the Adobe Resort (541-547-3141) yourself to reserve your room. You can stay alone (a real treat) or share with a friend (and save some money). The sooner you register the more room choices you will have. Rates are between $140-$220 per night depending on which room you want. There is an indoor pool and hot tub so bring your swim suite.
Arrival:
Check in at the Adobe Resort is 4:00pm on October 20th. Please be sure to arrive no later than 4:30pm so you can get settled before enjoying dinner. Be advised it’s a hour and a half drive from the Eugene Airport (EUG) and a three+ hour drive from Portland International Airport (PDX) to the house.

Check-out will be promptly at 11am on October 25th.

Cancellations:
Because I offer intimate retreats, I depend greatly on pre-booked occupancy and need to stay as full as possible to keep retreats from being cancelled. That being said, I understand that emergencies occur and have established a policy that I hope you too will find reasonable.
Cancellations must be made in writing (via email) to: misty@creativelymisty.com
