Flint Hills Arts is an amazing all inclusive arts & happiness retreat center on a bluff overlooking Tuttle Creek Lake in the northern Flint Hills. Inspired workshops are presented in a nurturing way by professional artist instructors. Comfortable accommodations, excellent food, mindfulness, and free time in spectacular scenery combine to create the perfect artistic getaway.
Flint Hills Arts & Happiness is on four private acres nestled in a hillside overlooking Tuttle Creek Lake in Pottawatomie County, Kansas. Twenty minutes out of Manhattan, KS, it is rural, private, and picturesque. Lake access is a short walk down the hill.
We want your stay to be a creative, relaxing, and inspirational time for you, so we provide everything that you need to have a truly fulfilling retreat. Lodging, food, snacks, toiletries, community time, warmth and friendliness and all art supplies. There's no need to bring anything except yourself (and clothes, clothes are good)!
Please let us know in advance and we will do all we can to accommodate you. That said, our meals are served family style and sometimes we cannot make every offering meet your needs, but we will do our best to ensure you have a healthy and balanced meal.
If you are driving, we will provide you will detailed driving directions. Be mindful that the last five miles is on dirt roads. Low profile vehicles my have difficulty.
If you are flying, we recommend you fly into Kansas City or Wichita. Both cities are just over two hours away. With advanced notice, we may be able to arrange transportation from the Kansas City airport to Flint Hills Arts and back at an additional fee.
We have four shared rooms available. If you have a preference, let us know and we will try to accommodate you if we can, but it may not always be possible. Rooms are assigned on a first come, first served basis (if you book with a friend and you'll know your roomie!)
We do not provide alcohol but you are welcome to bring your own wine or beer if you'd like.
Because of the extremely dry conditions, we do not allow smoking on the property.
We want the focus to be on you and your art journey and the best way to achieve that is to completely immerse yourself without distraction. For that reason, no non-participating family members or pets are allowed. It's all about you!
We would love to be flexible with arrivals, however, we will be busy setting up and preparing in the morning so please contact us directly to arrange an arrival prior to 11. We ask that every one make their departures by 2:00 pm on Sunday to give us time to clean and prep for our next workshop.
Flint Hills Arts requires full payment at the time of registration. If space is still available, we will accept bookings up to one week before.
Participants may cancel up to three weeks before the workshop and be refunded the full amount minus a $250 deposit. Should Flint Hills Arts cancel for any reason, full refunds will be issued.
Reasons for Flint Hills Arts to cancel :
Natural disaster
Minimum student number not met
Instructor illness
Both Bluff House and Overlook Cottage are fully climate controlled, however we will be spending plenty of time outdoors.
We anticipate inviting guest instructors to broaden our offerings in the future, and would love to collect your contact and credentials.
Outside of scheduled retreats, both the Bluff House and Overlook Cottage are available to rent individually or as a pair between April - October. Please reach out directly to plan your private getaway.
Our retreats are designed to be intimate and companionable. The accommodations sleep up to 8 in two to a room shared spaces. This number of artists will comfortably fit into our work spaces and around the dining room table. With a lead instructor and assistant the ratio will be 1:4 at the most. The schedule is a balance of instruction, work time, outdoors, mindfulness, community activities, and free time. We invite you to arrive with open, flexible minds, ready to learn and share, grow and participate.
