A day of celebration & connection as women in the SLV!

The Women’s Day Retreat at New Sky Ranch’s off-grid property is intended to bring together a diverse group of women and non-confirming gendered people from the San Luis Valley to get acquainted, connect and celebrate womanhood via workshops, relaxation, art activities and rituals in a “safe” and respectful space for all. This free gathering invites women to bring an offering instead of monetary exchange.

Please know that we can only host ~35 women and will add to the attendee list on a first come, first served basis. If we exceed 30 women, we will see if another women’s day is possible 🙂
