Poetry Retreat @ In Cahoots


Join us for a week of independent work at In Cahoots, a residency in the Petaluma countryside. This 5-day writing retreat offers an escape from daily pressures to commit to self-directed work alongside other poets who are doing the same. There won’t be workshops or craft lectures, but you will receive a daily poem and prompt to inspire and support your practice, and we will host an optional evening salon after dinner each night where we can share works in progress, promote and discuss publishing opportunities, celebrate, commiserate, and discuss elements of craft. We will also coordinate optional outings in the area and be open to spontaneous happenings on and off campus. Come enjoy a week of poetry community and productivity, with access to the property’s facilities, including a library, writer’s shack, studio barn, writing nooks, and beautiful open space. Individual manuscript consultations and one-on-one feedback sessions will be available for an additional cost.
