So…What is Art Escape Retreat?
Art Escape is a small pottery retreat near Glacier National Park. Our focus is on providing you with a fun, creativity and a beautiful place to improve as a potter.
You’ll have full access to the pottery studio, where pottery lessons and studio time are available.
Think of Art Escape as a bed & breakfast (super-healthy, organic breakfast + other food) combined with a full ceramic arts studio in one of the most breathtakingly beautiful places on Earth…Montana!
We’re tucked in the Salish Mountains on a sheltered ten acres of beautiful forest, close to Whitefish, Glacier National Park and Kalispell Montana.
Our goals at Art Escape are to create the pottery studio of our dreams, have more fun than a barrel of monkeys AND share it with other aspiring artists from all skill levels. The prospect of meeting and working with potters from all over the world just lights us up.
We’re here creating and living our dreams and would love to provide you the space, peace and quiet, teachings and tools to create your dreams, too.
When you arrive, we encourage you to begin your stay here by leaving whatever’s not working for you (i.e., your ‘issues’) out on the main road before you make that last right turn into the property.
If you want your old problems back when you leave, that’s up to you. You’ll know right were to find them…
However while you’re here, be open to change because in addition to stepping up your pottery game, you may have breakthroughs in other areas of your life.

Lodging in Whitefish, Montana
It’s no accident that we choose to live and build Art Escape in Whitefish, Montana. This place will reset you and your creative soul. The energy of the trees, the breeze, the green, the snow help you relax, see things differently and find creative juices you didn’t know you had.

Complete Ceramic Studio
Our modern, fully-equipped ceramic studio has everything a thriving potter needs to create. A new kiln, several types of clay, extruders and tools galore. When it comes to being creative, the right space, and the right company, can make all the difference in the world.
