"“I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.” - John Burroughs."

We offer a number of arts and culture experiences that are found only here in Manitoba.  Tailored for 2 - 15 people, these programs feature very talented Manitobans who love sharing stories, giving you a really authentic insight into their lives and crafts, and help you to create something tangible to take away.  All experiences are subject to the availability of our facilitators.

Please call in advance to confirm the dates you are coming, and we'll check to see that the program of your choice is available.

• Paper Memory Keepers: Create hand-made books wiith friends, and take away a small album to put your new photographs or written reflections of Riding Mountain into.  You'll be in the company of artists who love paper.  All materials provided.
  
• Celtic Harp Magic:  Play harps with a Celtic harpist (you don't have to know how to play or know music - because a harp is in a pentatonic scale); she'll play for you; then ask her for her autograph on one of her CD's of your choice (By the way, she has more than 8 portable harps).   This is an amazing experience for a small group.  You'll feel the wonderment of making stringed music and go away changed forever.
• Mountain View Gold: Would you like to taste raw, unprocessed honey that the bees have put away for winter, make your own take-away beeswax candle tapers to give to a friend, and learn about the biology of bees?  A winter's travel up the Riding Mountain parkway to the honey-keeper's farm, looking up at the Riding Mountain escarpment.  Oh, he also makes the most beautiful hand-crafted rocking chairs....perfectly balanced!
