And in 2028...

My Art Adventures Abroad 2028 is travelling to Morocco! We will live in Marrakesh as we explore the beauty of this amazing culture and learn to make a travel art journal. The Perigod Retreats folks from France are in charge and have a gorgeous place reserved for our stay in Marrakesh! Details will be posted as we near the event. In the meantime, mark 4-11 March on your 2028 calendar. You won't want to miss this one. We will be a small group.
