Power of Hope
Awaken creativity + Connect with friends
+ Learn from nature + Have fun!
Looking for a creative space to take some time away, try new things, make new friends and connect with nature? Join us for the Power of Hope July 3- 10, 2024! We bring together a community of artists, wellness practitioners, activists and youth ages 14-18 for a week of camping, creating, healing and having an incredible time. Camp is open to all regardless of ability to pay.
You will camp out under the stars at the Point Reyes National Seashore and each day will offer new opportunities to engage in workshops, music, dance, activism and just enjoying some time with friends in nature.
