October In-Person Workshops & New Virtual Events

Autumn is a magical season in Northern New Mexico. Isn't it time to get away from home, take deep, nourishing breaths of crisp fresh air and absorb the majesty and beauty of Ghost Ranch's landscape? We've added new in-person workshops to inspire and rejuvenate. Our entire staff has been certified in Covid-safe practices by the state of New Mexico. Our state has some restrictions so please visit our website for details before booking. We hope you will schedule (or re-schedule) a trip to take an in-person workshop. Can't make it this year in person? Check out our exciting virtual offerings with intriguing topics and seasoned instructors. We hope to see you soon!
