Creative Retreat Live

If there’s ever an event to light your creativity on fire, it’s going to be at Creative Retreat Live! I’m so excited to be part of this HUGE event with 75 artists and classes all for you, ALL FOR FREE.

I remember feeling overwhelmed at the start of my creative journey because I didn’t know who to follow, or where to start, or what to use. I know many of the artists in this incredible lineup, and I know you’re going to be inspired but also have the right information. Can you find me below? 😉

I’m also really proud to be part of a group of artists who are willing to share their expertise. It’s really a “collaboration over competition” kind of mentality, and I’m thankful to be grouped with them.

Many of these artists will also provide freebies, so register today and get in on the fun!

Creative Retreat Live FAQs

When is Creative Retreat Live?

The live event is running from Thursday, February 24th through to Saturday, March 5th.

After your register, you’re in! 

Before the event, you will get an email containing a link to join the livestream. Make sure you add hello@thepigeonletters.com to your safe senders and be on the look out!

Is the event really free?

IT SURE IS! This community is just awesome, right? More than anything, we love coming together to celebrate creativity and we need it now more than ever!

What if I can’t attend live?

Not to worry! A replay of each day will be available for 24 hours.

You can also buy lifetime access to your Permanent Vacation to watch all of the classes at anytime for UNDER $2 a workshop (price will increase once event starts).

What is Permanent Vacation?

So glad you asked! There is SO much goodness packed into all of these classes that we want you to be able to participate in ALL of them! If you can’t catch them live, you can purchase lifetime access to watch them any time you want!


I’ll see you there!
