A Resource for Women in the Arts, Academia, and Entrepreneurship
Resident Robin Olsen painting in Holly House
“I came here for three weeks to paint, which I did, but, as so many have said before me, my time here has been so much richer than that. …The first week here I sat in gratitude as I felt the knots unwinding in my mind. For the first time ever, my morning journal pages were not filled with “to do” lists, but instead were a quiet appreciation of the moment or deeper pondering about where I want my work to go.” Robin Olsen
