Winter and Spring registration opens TODAY, November 11! We’re excited to welcome you— make your plans to visit Holden soon!

Plan your visit from January 5 to May 31 and enjoy a variety of seasonal programming. Whether you’re seeking the quiet, cozy, and contemplative atmosphere of winter, or ready to embrace the joyous return of spring, Holden has something to celebrate year-round. 

The calendar for the next six months is still taking shape. Some early highlights for the winter include two women’s retreats and Holy Week. Reservations for dates after 5/31/2026 will open at 10:00am PST on 1/2/2026

Plus, new in 2026, Holden will host a series of “Winter Weekends.” This is an opportunity to learn and connect with others during the winter! Once a month, a special faculty member will come and share their expertise in two to three teaching sessions. Topics include knitting, ceramics, and Indigenous food sovereignty. Consider inviting a few friends and sharing a long weekend together at Holden!

Check the Holden calendar for updates. 

Dates have also been set for the regular events, including Spring Work Weeks (April 26 - May 10), May Youth Weekend (May 15-17), and Alumni Weekend (May 22-24). Registration for these special events is open today, November 11.
