In early March, 2020 eighteen women of all ages came together for a week of intensive writing and enchantment in the Scottish Highlands. The collective creative energy of unfettered femininity ignited inspiration like no other force.

Now we are heading back, brimming with inspiration...

Muses in the Highlands is a visual arts retreat designed to inspire the imagination and focus creativity. Purposefully scheduled in the chilly month of March (daffodil season!), you’ll soon be cozied up in a chair, wrapped in tartan, sipping a scotch with pen and paper in hand-- or perhaps braving the glorious coastline for what is arguably the freshest sea air in the world, letting the romantic, windy coast inspire your visions to life.

 

The retreat features a series of classes led by world renowned instructors, as well as personal time for art making, conversation and adventures. Situated on a gothic coastline which boasts a medieval castle, an ancient abbey, and graveyard haunted by the ghost of the anglo-saxon warriors buried within.
