GCA Workshop + Retreat 2024

Bring your book to hang out with fellow readers! We'll meet in the lobby of the hotel and have some quiet time to enjoy reading before the day kicks off. No assigned book, bring what you want!

Did you know that stopping to observe your surroundings through the lens of a camera is a great way to recharge and deepen your connection with nature?

Jan Golden, who was previously an iPhone Photography instructor, will share some smartphone photography tips and lead us on a photo walk around venue campus. At the end of the walk, we'll share our best photos and discuss our experience. The walk will be approximately 1 mile.

Please bring your smartphone and comfortable walking shoes. All photography skill levels are welcome.

Aaron Draplin returns for a retreat session that gets everyone involved! To start, everyone will get a Field Notes memo book and a pencil. Aaron will start off by explaining how he does what he does, his process and show a couple examples of logo projects. Attendees will get to play a bit, surprise themselves and then Aaron will bring a couple sketches to life in real time. Finally, Aaron will go behind the scenes and answer any questions you might have about what he does, sharing anecdotes from projects from his practice.
