Writers' Retreat, February 24-26
The goal of our retreat: provide the time and space for you to explore your creativity.
Find inspiration amongst fellow authors (new and aspiring or veteran and published) in the picturesque town of Gananoque and the Thousand Islands.
Pamper yourself with a winter retreat where you can write, relax, enjoy the beauty of nature in a cozy town atmosphere, and practice self care.
