A weekend retreat immersed in stained glass art and natural beauty.

20th - 22nd June 2025

 

Join accomplished glass artist Marian Day, in partnership with experienced retreat facilitators and artists Bronwyn and Max Greive, to learn how to work with glass, while you develop your own creativity. Arrive any time from 5pm Friday until 3.30pm Sunday

 

Marian will tutor you in the art of Stained-glass, guiding participants to design and craft their own stained-glass pieces. Alongside the art workshops, the retreat offers time for relaxation and reflection. ‘Be nurtured in Nature’ with time to bushwalk, sit in wonder, learn about or practice art-journalling, spend time reflecting, walk one of the 4 labyrinths on the property, rest, and connect with others interested in being creative. Simply sitting in the tranquil setting can help refresh your minds, opening you to new creative ideas.

 

This boutique retreat (maximum 11 people) is set within the 100 acres of Fosterton Retreat, with stunning views across valleys and hills to the Barrington Tops National Park. Only 12 minutes from the historic and beautiful town of Dungog, surrounded by wallabies grazing and birds singing, this is a popular place for get-aways, artists, and lovers of nature to renew and connect on a deeper level.

 

It's just over 2 hours north of Sydney from the start of the M1, but if you want to come by train, (north or south), please contact us regarding pick up from Dungog station (the XPT & Citylink services stop here). A small fee applies.

 

Pay online in full or contact us for direct debit or a payment plan.

EARLY BIRD PRICE $600 only until April 30th.

“Great place. With the long weekend approaching we sought a getaway removed from urban sprawl. An easy 3hr+ drive from Sydney through some beautiful countryside - the place is well kept, secluded and has all the creature comforts you could need for a few days stay. We're a fan and we'll be back. ”- Doug
