Curious about the mysteries of Orpheus? The Cornet Bay Retreat Center is holding a weekend to re-live this story!

Orpheus was the first musician, the first poet and the first story-teller – the first composer of myth, for mythos is story; and all nature crowded round to hear him.

At this exciting retreat, you will encounter many divine beings, mythical beasts, face challenges and choices, and maybe even get a glimpse into the mystery of your very own being. 

There will be live actors, displays, props, activities and much, MUCH more to see and do in this live-interactive weekend! 

When: Friday, September 27th at 3:00 pm through Sunday, September 29th, 2019 at 12:00 pm.
