Experience the charm of Campobello Island in a creative retreat led by watercolor artist Mary Laury. Settle into historic Victorian cottages within the 3,000-acre Roosevelt Campobello Park, where coastal light and sea air inspire every brushstroke. Enjoy fantastic meals, guided painting sessions, and the company of fellow artists. Whether beginning or experienced, you’ll find space to create, reflect, and be renewed by the island’s quiet beauty. - “Mary is a wonderful guide and a gifted teacher.” Step back to a time when President Franklin Roosevelt, Eleanor, and their family escaped to their “beautiful little island” in the Canadian Maritimes, Campobello Island. We will be sole guests of the international park, staying in charming historic Victorian cottages. Workshop participants will explore and paint the same coastal scenery enjoyed by the summer residents at the turn of the 20th century. All meals are included in the workshop fee as well as a private concert by well known Celtic Fiddle player, Katherine Moller. Note: Fee includes a $50 non-refundable registration fee.
