Step into a sanctuary of imagination, where storytelling becomes a portal to the futures we long for. This five-day analog retreat is a guided exploration of future folklore—melding the timeless structures of fairytale, myth, and speculative fiction with the radical act of imagining new worlds.

Through creative exercises, written worldbuilding, and deep engagement with landscape, we will rekindle our power to co-author the future. Whether through manifestos, poetry, future fiction, zines, or even game design, each participant will craft their own visionary fragment of a future culture—a glimpse of what could be.

Rather than a singular collective story, this retreat invites you to form your own future-facing work while witnessing how our individual pieces interweave, revealing unseen patterns of possibility. By the end, we will co-create a micro-museum of future culture, a living archive of hope, resilience, and creative power.

Taking place in Fort Bragg, CA, at the historic Weller house in a town out of time, in a landscape that opens the imagination, this retreat offers respite from a dark world and a space to dream forward. In times of crisis, imagination is a radical act—let’s reclaim it together.
