SPARKle: An Inner Child Creative Retreat {JAN 30-FEB 1}
SPARKle: An Inner Child Creative Retreat for Female Identifying & Non-Binary People
In the deep mid-winter, we will find the kindling for our artists' fires.
January 30 - February 1, 2026 | Windsor, Colorado
Remember when creativity felt like breathing? When making things was simply what you did on a Tuesday afternoon, no permission needed? SPARKle is an invitation back to that place—where joy leads, play is serious business, and your inner child gets to be the artist-in-residence for an entire weekend.
What is SPARKle?
This isn't your typical creative retreat. We're not here to teach you techniques or master new skills (though you might). We're here to remember. To rediscover. To give your inner artist permission to come out and play without apology.
Every person is a creative and an artist. SPARKle creates the intentional space for you to believe it.
The Weekend Unfolds
Over three days, you'll move between guided group sessions and open creative time—spaces to reflect inward and express outward. We'll explore:
Who you were and who you've always been through inner child reflection
What brought you joy as a kid and how to reclaim it now
Your barriers to play and what it might feel like to lower them
The mindset of a child—curious, fearless, absorbed
You'll have access to creative spaces for art, writing, music, and play. Make something alone or with others. Dance in the kitchen. Sing a song (or more!). Write terrible poetry. Build a blanket fort if that's what calls you. The only requirement is to show up as yourself.
The Grand Finale
The weekend concludes with an intimate showcase where you can share what you've created—a song, a story, a dance, a drawing, whatever emerged. And if you're feeling brave, join us for an optional family-friendly recital a week later to share your spark with your people. Venue details to follow.
What's Included:
Up to Three nights in a beautiful Windsor VRBO with multiple bedrooms, gathering spaces, and creative nooks
All meals and snacks lovingly prepared for the group
Guided creative sessions with your retreat guides
Art supplies and creative materials (feel free to bring your own creative supplies, too)
Access to play spaces including an outdoor pickleball court (weather permitting—it is January in Colorado!)
A community of fellow creatives seeking the same spark
Your Guides:
Veronica May, Heather Ostberg Johnson, and Deanna Mae will hold space for your creative emergence, offering gentle guidance while honoring wherever your process leads.
The Details:
Investment: $675
Scholarships: $50 scholarships available—don't let cost keep you from your spark
Payment Plans: Choose between Pay-in-Full, 2-month plus $10 admin fee or 3-month plan plus $20 admin fee.
Limited to 12 participants to ensure intimate, meaningful connection.
Ready to SPARKle?!
Who should come? Anyone seeking joy. Anyone who suspects their inner creative is still in there, waiting to emerge. Anyone ready to play again and/or more.
Winter is when we're supposed to go dormant, but what if this is the season you reignite instead? Register today and join us!
