Enjoy the company of fellow creatives by sharing, creating and having fun.
Nestled below the Compassberg, Nieu Bethesda is an oasis in the arid Karoo.
Visit the Owl House, take a donkey cart ride, see fossils, visit art galleries and enjoy local fare.
This village, left behind in time, attracts those who seek peace and tranquillity.


Let the peace and tranquility spark your creativity by working on your own project(s). Finish a UFO or start a new project – be it in any textile or fibre related activity! All while enjoying the company of fellow artists by sharing, creating and having fun.
Unfortunately Creative Retreat 2025 will no longer be offered due to family commitments.
