SLOW DOWN AND LIVE : awaken the artist within
SATURDAY JANUARY 24, 2008
SUNRISE RANCH - LOVELAND, CO
The Slow Down series of events at Sunrise Ranch is about taking
time to connect with Source - the source of our food, our creativity,
our original power. Through its diverse offering of arts workshops,
Slow Down and Live will create a collective current of creativity
ripe for artistic expression - an ideal setting for those looking to
awaken or reawaken their artist within. This full day of activities
(10AM - 9PM) will be held at Sunrise Ranch, a beautiful retreat
center that facilitates the realization of creative potential through
its slow pace and soul-nourishing atmosphere.
Slowly enjoy two meals made from mostly locally-sourced, natural
ingredients. Dinner by Chef Giuseppe Monaco, co-founder of
Loveland’s top Italian restaurant, Monaco Trattoria. He’ll prepare a
4-course authentic Italian meal using our grass-fed beef from Sunrise
Farm paired with local wine from Snowy Peaks Winery.
