SUMMER RETREATS

Dar’s first voyage into Writing a Song That Matters was an in-person retreat experience in 2013, with a tiny team of co-leaders and some trusting songwriters in attendance from all over the U.S. and Canada. This leap of faith resulted in many more retreats and a year-round group of songwriters that often feels more like a community and even a family.

In 2020, finding it impossible to gather in person safely due to a global pandemic, Dar and her team organized a series of online retreats based on the retreats that they’d developed over the years at the Garrison Institute.

And now, thanks to the COVID-19 vaccine, we are now BACK in person for 2021!! While The Garrison Institute, our usual gathering place, is closed for the year, we will have full run of Stone Point Conference Center in Stony Point, New York.

Retreats dates are:
July 5-9 For More info and to register JULY RETREAT
August 9-13 For More info and to register AUGUST RETREAT

Stay tuned for an early June announcements - Fall Tour and Information about Dar's new CD and LP!!
