Artists have always flocked to the south of France. Maybe it's the changing light, the fields of sunflowers and lavender, or that gentle, time-out-of-time feeling when everything slows down. You'll feel like family at the French Retreat, like visiting your relations at their farmhouse in the countryside. Whether we choose to work in the vast converted barn, under the lime tree or by the pool in the delicious summer afternoons, you will feel the hurry melt away.

Travel to the land of light, to the farmlands, vineyards, and sunflower fields of Chalais, France, and join Emma Pruen, Nixie Graham and Matthew Pruen for a breakthrough gathering of inspiration, creation, and transformation. We offer you, struggling to heal amidst the everyday demands of life, the gift of time, community, instruction, adventure, and the opportunity to focus deeply in order to bring your longed for change to fruition.
