squam :: creativity as a way of life

Squam is a lake, a gathering, a community. In essence, squam is hopeful, open-hearted and passionately committed to having fun, being goofy, diving in, singing out, and seeking beauty in our daily life. In a sense, the word squam came to mean a gathering of people who love all things creative, who care about being true to themselves, and who savor time spent in the beauty of a natural environment. That is what is says on their website. It's the truth. Read more here: Squam Art Workshops

I experienced my first "Squam" June 6-10 2012. I wasn't sure what to expect. Now I find myself not knowing how to describe my experience. How I found out about Squam, what I experienced, and what I created while there will be in the next posting. In the meantime here is a look at the environment.
