Sabrina Ward Harrison to lead Angela Ritchie’s ACE Camp on The Art of Becoming Yourself, October 24- November 2 2009, Todos Santos, Baja, Mexico

 

Become fascinated by your own life. Create an ode to living. That is the invitation on offer at Angela Ritchie’s ACE Camp, which launches this fall with a 10 day retreat in the artist community of Todos Santos, with journal-artist Sabrina Ward Harrison.

Limited to ten participants, the camp will take place at  El Pescadero Beach House on the Mexican Baja from October 24 to November 2 2009.

By the surf breaks of the Pacific Ocean, adventurers will be led by journal-artist Sabrina Ward Harrison in the making of a personal journal. Road-trips, great meals and collaborative art projects will fill the days, with the adventure culminating in the celebration of El Dia De Los Muertos, the Mexican festival recognising the Day of the Dead.

Fall into the arts as the red rocks of Sedona will once again provide the backdrop for the award-winning Sedona Arts Festival taking place on October 10th & 11th, The Festival will showcase over 150 world-class artists and craft persons, continuous live musical entertainment, great food, an extraordinary raffle, the interactive KidZone and as a very special feature this year - the Tony Curtis Art Tent.  Yes, THAT Tony Curtis.
 
The Sedona Arts Festival is recognized as one of the best festivals of its size in the nation and this year’s event will be no exception.  The artists have been carefully chosen by an experienced jury to represent a wide variety of mediums and styles of the highest quality including excellence in ceramics, fiber art, jewelry, mixed media, photography, painting, sculpture and wood.  Many new artists will be represented alongside the best and brightest from our own community.  “It’s important to us that we support our local artists as well as bringing fresh talent from outside the area to inspire and delight the nearly 5000 visitors we attract each year.  I’m very excited about the roster of visual artists we’re showcasing,” explained Executive Director of the not-for-profit Festival, Gayle Taylor.  “In addition to keeping the Festival fresh and filled with breathtaking art, there will be something for every taste and budget.”
