Description
Join friends and fellow fiber artists for three relaxing days in the countryside at the Sauder Heritage Inn!
Whether you knit, crochet, spin, weave, embroider, hook or do other types of hand work, the Fiber Arts Retreat is a wonderful place to gather with other makers for a creative weekend away. This is an open studio style format and all handwork fiber arts are welcome!
Fiber enthusiasts like yourself will gather in the spacious and well-lit Homestead meeting room at the Sauder Heritage Inn, where you can spread out your work, have fun making new friends, and work on those UFOs!
You set your own schedule for the weekend! Take advantage of the comforts of your room to sleep in, enjoy a leisurely breakfast at the Oak Tree, or soak up some quiet time by the lobby fireplace. Pack a swim suit so you can enjoy the waterfall pool at the Inn, take a nature walk along our Wetlands Trail, or watch the sunset over cornfields from the courtyard at the Inn. The Sauder Village campus has much to offer during your stay with us!
The retreat room is open daily 8 am until midnight. Catered lunches are served in the retreat room at 12 noon and dinners are at 5:30 pm. At some point during the weekend there will be a “show and tell”
We also give daily door prizes of handcrafted artisan items from Sauder Village’s own craft shops.
3-Day Retreat Fee: $165/$155 Sauder Village Member. Your retreat fee includes lunch & dinner Friday & Saturday and lunch on Sunday, along with snacks, beverages, and admission to historic Sauder Village. Space is limited to 45 people.
