A Day of
Connection

A gently held day in the Cotswolds to walk, eat, create and reconnect — with yourself, with others, and with the natural world.

Sunday 26th July 2026 9.30am – 4–5pm Elkstone Studios, Gloucestershire Limited spaces
Hosted in partnership with Roam & WonderProud Phoenix Club

Slow down. Show up.

This is a day designed to remind you what it feels like to be fully present. Set in the beautiful surroundings of Elkstone Studios in the Cotswolds, we’ve woven together everything we love most — movement, nourishing food, meaningful conversation, and creative expression — into a single, unhurried day.

Roam & Wonder and Proud Phoenix Club have come together to hold space for a group of people who are ready to slow down and reconnect. Whether that connection is to themselves, to the people around them, or to the natural world — this day is for you.

Connection with self

Mid-morning

Guided walk with Roam & Wonder

We head out into the Cotswold countryside on a gentle guided walk led by Roam & Wonder. As we walk, we’ll share why connection matters so deeply to our community, and invite you to notice what’s alive around — and within — you. Keep your eyes open for colours, textures and natural finds to use in the afternoon’s artwork.

Lunchtime

Lunch in the Elk Tipi

Back at Elkstone, we gather beneath the Elk Tipi for a beautiful grazing table lunch provided by Roots & Seeds Kitchen Garden — seasonal, nourishing and made with love.

Afternoon

Intuitive painting workshop with Hannah Gabe

The heart of the afternoon. Hannah Gabe (Lady Gabe) guides a gently held, intuitive painting workshop on A5 canvas — no artistic experience needed. Inspired by the morning’s walk, your word, feeling or intention for the day, you’ll create something entirely your own to take home.

Close

Closing & farewells

We close the day gently from around 4pm. There’s no rush — linger as long as you like, say your goodbyes slowly, and leave when you’re ready. We’ll aim to be wrapped up by 5pm, with artwork in hand and a limited edition Connection t-shirt to carry the feeling home with you.

Creating Space

Our afternoon workshop is led by artist and facilitator Hannah Gabe. Using mixed media — acrylics, soft pastels, charcoal, and textures gathered on the morning’s walk — participants create a personal A5 canvas artwork inspired by a word, feeling or intention.

“No artistic experience is needed. The focus is allowing yourself room for expression, exploring personal meaning and enjoying a playful process — rather than being focused on the outcome.” — Hannah Gabe (Lady Gabe), Creative Facilitator

The finished piece acts as a visual anchor — something tangible to take home as a reminder of what you wish to embody moving forward.
