The Siena Center, Racine

Mark your October calendars now and plan to join fellow Paqettes for a few good days of concentrated creativity and camaraderie on the shores of beautiful Lake Michigan in Racine, WI. If you haven’t been to a retreat before, this is your chance to get well-acquainted with like-minded friends, work without distractions from your everyday environment, and draw inspiration from one another.

Located on the shore of Lake Michigan, it is a
wonderfully inspirational site to rev up your creativity.

Our retreats can be designed however we wish. Do you have a skill that you would like to share with the group? Do you have something that you would like to learn from a fellow member? If so, please contact Roberta Dahmer to see about building these sessions into our time there. We have several demos planned for the retreat.

On Monday evening -Vikki Pignatelli’s Envelope method of binding a quilt;
Tuesday morning - How to use Lutrador in 12 ways;
Tuesday after lunch - How to mount an Art Quilt on acrylic;
Tuesday evening - Burnt edge techniques.

Further details and a registration form are available on our website (see Special Events). Please get the form, along with your payment, to MARY SCHAEFFER by our September 8th meeting.

Costs are $140 for 2 nights (Monday, Oct. 11 to Wednesday, Oct. 13) and 5 meals beginning with supper at 5:30 on Monday and ending with breakfast at 8:00 on Wednesday. Cost for commuters is *????($20.75)??? for one day at the retreat and lunch, which is the main meal of the day. Commuters must complete an application, so that space is prepared for you.

*THERE WILL BE A PRICE INCREASE AS OF SEPT. 1ST BUT IT SHOULD BE MINIMAL. THE $140 ALREADY REFLECTS THE SEPT. 1ST INCREASE.
