Calling all songwriters, musicians, and lyricists and those who are curious and want to join! United Adoration is inviting you to a very special multi-art retreat designed for you to create, collaborate, and build community with other creators. Many of us shy away from being called a "creative" or an "artist" but we at United Adoration believe that all of God's people are creatives, and our retreats are for YOU! During the retreat, we will have extended time to create, collaborate with one another, pray together, reflect on scripture, share meals, and worship God in community.
We believe that when we gather to worship and create, the Holy Spirit does deep work in our souls, so we intentionally leave time during the retreat for the Holy Spirit to care for us.
Artists, creatives, and those who don't think they are artists but are curious--- all ages and artistic experience levels are welcome.
Please bring your own art supplies, instruments if you are able, laptops, notebooks, writing utensil, and anything you use to create or write with.
If you are coming from out of town, you are responsible for your own lodging accommodations.
Friday night dinner, snacks, and Saturday breakfast provided. On-your-own but (but with others!) lunch on Saturday at restaurants nearby.
