Jemez Springs Lodging

For the Drawing Retreat (May 20-28, 2025) we reserve the entire property at the Cañon del Rio Inn and Spa, located just outside the village of Jemez Springs, under the Virgin Mesa. Each private bedroom has a bathroom with shower or tub and opens on to a covered patio with portable studio furnishings. There are comfortable common rooms, shaded poolside terraces, a sparkling clean hottub and walking paths to the Jemez River. There is ample space to explore, draw, read, and simply consider the light moving across the mesa.

For the Badlands Drawing Workshop (May 30-June 5, 2025), we reserve the entire 360 acre Circle A Guest Ranch property located within the Santa Fe National Forest, near Cuba, NM. Over 100 years old, the Lodge is comfortable and steeped in history. Please note that these accommodations are rustic. There may be field mice and other wildlife, and rooms are furnished with antiques. The emphasis here is on being in a remote and stunning natural location. We regret that accommodations are not ADA-accessible.

The workshop price includes all meals, with chef-prepared shared dinners, buffet-style daily fresh lunches, and continental breakfasts. Vegetarian options are available, and a menu questionnaire will be sent in advance. There is always a healthy supply of snacks, fruit, and hot and cold beverages.

We regret we are unable to accommodate highly-specific food preferences and dietary requirements, or handle medical reactions or food allergies.
