We design experiences that begin with a provocation: an open question that guides us through landscape, art, and one another.

Our thoughtfully constructed creative escapes trade urgency for wonder... exploring process, place, and connection through intimate gatherings, immersive learning, and experiments in creative renewal. A question mark. A hand reaching out to the part of you that’s been craving something different.

WHY WE EXIST

Something’s been off.
Maybe you’ve felt it too.

The shift to remote work, the endless scroll, the ping of another Slack notification— it's made connection feel thinner. We’re more “reachable” than ever, yet lonelier than we’ve ever been. In a culture obsessed with content, speed, and output, we offer something slower, stranger, and more human.

Inspiration, once wild and electric, now feels kinda flat. AI churns out imitation. Algorithms echo back what we already know. And the pressure to produce— to have something to show for every hour, every idea— has made many of us forget why we ever loved making things in the first place.

SKYPUNCH was born from that ache. We desire to step away. Not to escape, but to remember. To feel awe again. To be changed by a place. To sit in silence and hear something true rise up.

We create experiences that honor the in-between: between burnout and breakthrough. Between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming.

THE SKYPUNCH WAY

So, how do we return to what moves us? Here’s how we design experiences that make space for that remembering:

⟡ Anchor in Place
Where we are matters! Whether virtual or IRL, our retreats honor each location’s texture, history, and energy. We design trips around places that invite stillness, observation, and awe.

⟡ Start with a Lens
Every gathering begins with a thread: a work of art, a big question. This lens invites reflection and expansion.

⟡ Design the Arc
Arrival, unfolding, and integration. We balance intention with spaciousness.

⟡ Weave in Art, Rest, + Connection
We braid together art (site visits, references), rest (slowness, solo time, sensory care), and connection (dialogue, meals, presence).

⟡ Leave with Something That Lingers
There’s no guaranteed transformation. But something always shifts. A new thread. A deeper breath. A story to carry home.

WHO THIS IS FOR

SKYPUNCH is for those who feel something stirring.
For the ones who don’t fit cleanly into boxes. Who’ve built impressive lives but still ache for more. For artists, dreamers, creatives, and question-askers who want to reconnect with wonder, with others, with themselves.

You might be tired of pretending inspiration lives on your feed. You’re ready to feel your own rhythms again.

WHAT YOU’LL LEAVE WITH
⟡ A Story
You’ll return with something worth telling. A creative thread, a tiny revelation, a glimpse of your next chapter.

⟡ A Community
Kindred spirits. Unexpected friendships. A gentle web of people who crave meaning, not followers.

⟡ A Little Fire
A spark. A sketch. A truth. Something half-formed that keeps unfolding.

⟡ A Reboot
Not a reset button. A sense that your breath is deeper.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
⟡ Art as Compass
We use art history, design thinking, and poetic reference points as prompts for meaning-making.

⟡ Place as Teacher
We choose places with gravity and landscapes that speak. From the high desert to virtual realms, location shapes everything.

⟡ Intimacy by Design
Small groups. Big conversations. Nothing performative. Intimate by design: we crave depth, not scale.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
⟡ Curiosity
We ask questions we don’t rush to answer.

⟡ Connection
We make spaces where strangers become collaborators, co-dreamers, and friends.

⟡ Play
We value weirdness, experimentation, and a little levity. Nothing rigid. Everything alive.

⟡ Transformation
Not a glow-up. A gentle unfolding.
