Garden Chirps: Full Retreat Details

Let your senses bloom.
Garden Chirps is a 3-hour gentle retreat tucked inside the vibrant paths of the Denver Botanic Gardens. It’s an invitation to slow down, tune in, and let nature’s colors, textures, and fragrances guide your creative spirit.

We’ll stroll mindfully through curated gardens and tucked-away corners, pausing often to observe, reflect, and create. Through sketching, journaling, and playful prompts, you'll respond to the living beauty around you. No art experience needed—just a willingness to wander with wonder.

Phones stay tucked away so you can fully soak in the experience. You'll leave refreshed, with a full heart and hands carrying your own creative keepsakes: a journal, pen, canvas board, and whatever you made along the way.
