About the event


Step away from the noise and busy-ness. Slow down. Bind a book by hand, fill it with sketches and thoughts from the natural world. Leave with something imperfectly beautiful — and a deeper sense of calm.



In this one-day retreat, you’ll handcraft a journal, explore your creativity, and enjoy the company of others in a peaceful, inspiring setting.


This is not just a bookbinding but enjoying the process of making with your hands in a mindful manner. We'll be tuning into nature's rhythms and infusing this book with nature's pace, and the intention of continuing a creative practice.


What you'll experience:

  • Handcraft a coptic stitch journal from start to finish — stitching, folding, and binding your own pages
