April 19 - 24, 2026
Amsterdam has long been a haven for artists, writers, and creatives, with its rich history, stunning canals, and vibrant cultural scene. This five-day itinerary is designed to spark your imagination, immerse you in artistic and literary history, and provide the perfect balance of solitude and stimulation.
Join teaching artist Egan Holzhausen and author Robin Gaines as they lead museum tours and discussions of the Dutch masters while visiting other eclectic sites. We’ll paint and write to inspirational prompts along the canals, in cafes, and parks brimming with colorful tulips under that famous blue sky. No experience necessary to let your creativity take hold in the land some call the “Venice of the North.”

Meet the Facilitators
This fun, creative, dynamic Michiganian mother-daughter duo has exactly the kind of energy we all crave when in the midst of our own messy creative process. Robin’s steadying, anchoring presence has the power to guide you well beyond where you thought you could go and Egan’s chill, go-with-the-flow approach is as soothing as it is contagious. To experience them individually is a gift, to have both breathing life towards your work will provide you with unfettered relief and joyful release.
