A place where creativity is inspired by simplicity

 

 A place to tend to the land
A place to nourish body and soul

 

Altan Tepe

We invite you to journey into our nest near Alpedrinha, rural Portugal; a place of refuge, nurture and dreaming, surrounded by golden hills.

Here, we weave together in circle, land and sky tending, creating, & nourishment to form a Rural School of Arts.

Through these offerings we attune our ear once more to the sounds of the land, moving with the earth and her elements. Allowing the land to invite us to create & invite us to dream.Experiencing the healing of a different quality of time.

For an experience of the elemental, camping amongst the many fruit trees, olives, rocks, and waters. Here we rise with the sun and rest with the moon, living by candlelight.We collect water from the mountain and bathe in the natural springs. We ease into the quiet, and reconnect with ourselves, with one another, and with the wider web of all living things.
