Teacher Invitational (registration below)

June 5-15, 2016

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to experience the Lot Region in SW France, an area ripe with beauty and inspiration, a place artists retreat to (and return to!) for creative holidays and workshops.

This 10-day retreat gives you, as a teacher, a chance to preview the accommodations, fare and day trips that you might choose to include when imagining or scheduling your own artistic holiday with LIsa’s Gryphon Art and Travel. This very special offering will allow you to experience this beautiful region as a participant would, while envisioning how you will structure your workshop: sketchbook journaling on a market day in Figeac, a plein air painting day in St Cirq la Popie.

During your holiday, you will visit historic sites like the ancient cave paintings of Pech Merle, the medieval pilgramage site of Rocamadour, village markets or perhaps lunch at a chateau/vineyard.

Shopping at open air markets and strolling cobbled streets are only some of the things you will do while you visit. Perhaps Dominique will share some of her French cooking secrets with you, something many of our participants have enjoyed tremendously.

This Teacher Invitational is designed with teachers and their unique visions for their own workshops in mind. As a team, we work very hard to allow you to design your ideal workshop in your own medium; With our help, we give you and your students an enjoyable and unforgettable creative holiday, stylized to your specific specifications. Come and enjoy the comfortable, clean and renovated 200-year old farm house. Perhaps you will sleep in the Princess’ Tower.
