Montana Creative Retreat 2026
Thinking about coming to our creative retreat in Paradise Valley Montana?
Whether you have a clear artistic vision or simply a quiet longing to reconnect with your creativity, this is your invitation to pause, breathe, and rediscover what inspires you. Surrounded by wide open skies, mountain views, and the grounding beauty of nature, you’ll have space to explore, reflect, and create without pressure or expectation. If you love being immersed in nature and crave meaningful moments of inspiration, connection, and renewal, then this retreat is for you.
This retreat was created as a safe space to explore, express, to rest, to experiment, and to rediscover the parts of yourself that everyday life can sometimes keep quiet.
Our venue is nestled in the vast openness and mountains of Paradise Valley Montana. At its heart, Peace of Paradise is more than a retreat—it’s an atmosphere. It’s the intentional weaving of land, spirit, creativity, and connection. Here we have created inspiring spaces where people can gather, share, and create in an environment that fosters community and connection.
There is no pressure to perform and art experience is not necessary. Creativity is not about perfection. It is about presence. It is about courage. It is about curiosity. And most of all, it is about allowing yourself to play again!
During our time together at this creative retreat, we’ve intentionally curated experiences with local and national artists that invite you to slow down and fully engage your senses. Each scheduled gathering has been thoughtfully designed to move beyond observation and into participation, blending hands-on creativity and meaningful connection. This retreat is more than a series of events; it’s a collection of intentional experiences created to inspire you to pause and enjoy the energy of collaboration. Below is a sample of what to expect
