This year’s retreat returns to the stunning performing arts camp Caldera, high in the Cascade Mountains, on September 23-26, 2024. Set on mystical Blue Lake with exceptional facilities, Caldera was home to the Academy from 2002 – 2019 and will once again be the setting for the instructor-led workshops, instructor performances, participant open mics, one-on-one mentor sessions, group singing, and on-site RV and tent camping.
This special experience inspires people to express themselves creatively, support one another’s artistic aspirations, and helps develop a community that supports that pursuit.
