  • Pre-retreat Happy Hour and snacks the first night and evening program with the HansenCrafts crew

  • An evening program with Judith
  • Optional side trip to Taylored Fibers following the last day’s class.  There you will learn about Barry Taylor’s fiber processing operation and see his big carder at work.  Keep this in mind when booking your travel arrangements if you'd like to participate.
  • The September retreat is extra fun as it is on the heels of the Olympic Fiber Farm Tour.

Please read all the information regarding schedule and cancellation policy before committing to attend. 

Cancellation Policy...

  • For cancellations up to one month in advance, a cancellation fee of $100 will be retained.
  •  Sorry, there are no refunds for cancellations made within one month of the retreat, UNLESS we can fill your place two weeks before, in which case we will refund your tuition less the $100 cancellation fee.  This compensates us for the considerable time and effort required to fill your place at this late date.  We will try to assist you in any way we can.  We do not allow trading of class spaces without contacting us for approval.

 No one wants to have to cancel just a few weeks or less before the retreat and if they do it is because of a change in personal circumstances, illness, or something far more serious. We understand the serious nature of cancellations but HansenCrafts cannot bear the sole risk for your circumstances that cause you to cancel. We all take risks when we buy tickets ahead. HansenCrafts has a cancellation and refund policy that is generous by the standards of most events. We will do everything we reasonably can to fill your spot prior to the retreat but it is ultimately your responsibility if we cannot.
