Need a morning to completely switch off, connect with nature, and hit reset?

Following the very positive feedback we received for our first event, we are delighted to invite you to join us on Saturday, July 25th for a beautifully paced, morning event designed for reflection, reconnection, and rejuvenation in the heart of the stunning Burren landscape, Co. Clare.

🌿 What to Expect:

9:30 AM | Explore & Guide: We begin on-location with a gentle, guided walk led by local guide Marie McGauran, who has grown up in these environs. Together, we’ll unlock the secrets of the limestone karst, exploring the unique flora, fauna, geology, and ancient archaeology beneath our feet. (Gently paced to suit everyone and exact meeting point will be shared with our group closer to the time!)

11:00 AM | Refresh & Connect: We head back to the lovely, local Burren Mo Chroí, to relax over fresh coffee, tea, and delicious scones.

11:30 AM | Reflect & Create: I will guide you into a relaxed, creative space. You’ll have the time, peace, and materials to creatively respond to the sights and textures of your morning walk. I bring my experience as a Burren guide and Art Psychotherapist.

1:00 PM | Finish & Depart: Leave feeling grounded, inspired, and deeply rejuvenated.

🎨 No Experience Needed:
Absolutely zero art experience or hiking stamina required! This morning isn't about making a flawless masterpiece or conquering a mountain—it is simply about slowing down, playing with materials, and letting the landscape inspire you.

🎫 Investment:
€65 per person. This is fully inclusive of the expert guided tour, venue hire, workshop, fresh scones, tea/coffee, and all your art materials.

🔒 Limited Spaces:
To keep this experience intimate and peaceful, we are strictly limiting the group to just 10 spaces and adults.

👉 How to Book:
Spaces must be reserved in advance. To book email [email protected] or send me a direct message here to secure your spot today!
