Andrea Scher & Laurie Wagner
Like you, we have been missing the joy of being together in real life!
- The delight of clinking our glasses
- Writing together at the same table
- Making art in the sunshine
- Sitting around the firepit at night telling stories
- Eating delicious food
- Making new friends.
It has been a wild year, but we made it.
We’re moving to the other side of things and we want to
celebrate with you
September 11th and 12th, 2021

Covid measures: We will be following all covid safety protocols that are in place at the time of our retreat. We will wear masks if necessary. Vaccines are required to attend. Much of the workshop will take place in the sunshine, but since we’ll all be vaccinated, we believe we can safely be inside Laurie’s cozy house together.

NOTE: We reserve the right to cancel the workshop if necessary, due to natural disasters, pandemic, or any other reason. If we need to cancel, we will reschedule the workshop for as soon as possible.
By registering for this workshop, I am declaring that I have read all of the above and agree to all of the terms.
Where to stay? Any hotel in SF, Oakland or Alameda will be great. There are also some nice Airbnb’s in Alameda. We’re happy to send over some suggestions.
We promise: Deep connection, creative play + lots of laughter. We hope to have you!

It’s an experience that will stay with you
Laurie and Andrea are each wonderful teachers of their crafts, but also curators of a great group experience. They always draw in a magical mix of people, and create a beautiful retreat container. It’s an experience that will stay with you and keep on working with you after you’ve left. Go, and enjoy! – Lynne Mixson
