Tentative Schedule
(to be adjusted based on the interests and needs of participants)
For some of us, the most productive retreat might be open stretches of unstructured time either on our own or with our collaborators. With that in mind, know that the activities listed here would be optional except for the scene setting and meal times.
The scheduled Writing/Creating times are envisioned as independent or unstructured collaborative times, but those can be extended as needed. The Creative Sessions will be planned (or unplanned) based on the interests and needs of our participants.
