“The retreat is always wonderful,” said Barbara Wise, a Womanfest board member who has been attending the retreat since 1987.

“Women value this opportunity to recharge, relax, create and play.”

Proceeds will benefit Woman­fest, a nonprofit North Olympic Peninsula organization comprised of women from Port Angeles, Sequim and Port Townsend that awards scholarships to local women to further their education and hosts International Women’s Day celebrations in Port Angeles every spring.
