“All the best parts of summer camp, that cool art class you ran out of time to take in college, and quiet after-dinner time with your parents and family on the front porch, watching the sun go down and knowing that’s enough.” Web Webster, 2017

Dear Guests of Ghost Ranch, WELCOME to this beautiful and sacred place we call Ghost Ranch! For those who return year after year, thank you for your continued friendship. For those of you who will be here for the first time, we are looking forward to adding you to our family. Our mission is to enrich lives and our values reflect Spiritual Yearning and Development, Caring and Hospitality, Curiosity, Creativity and Family. We look forward to meeting you and caring for you as you learn, relax, enjoy and find purpose in all the ways you are seeking discovery and transformation in your life. In service and peace,

AS YOU CONSIDER GHOST RANCH From Layne Kalbfleisch Education Director Ghost Ranch does the impossible every day. Over a meal in the dining hall you might chat with a scientist, clergy, farmer, painter, businessperson, or hiker from any walk of life, generation, country, or background. Somehow, before the first dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end, something fundamental and profound happens to connect people with each other and Ghost Ranch. Worship happens. It takes many forms, in an art studio or in the Agape sanctuary, in the paleontology museum or on the top of Kitchen Mesa. Like love, worship in its best form is a verb. I find that Ghost Ranch gives plenty of opportunities to pray in motion! In the Summer and Fall of 2018, Ghost Ranch honors Pomona Hallenbeck, our 2018 Featured Legacy Artist. She has graced Ghost Ranch with her marvelous presence, teaching, and art for 33 years. Pomonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first class took place in the summer of 1984 under the leadership of Jim Hall. She is a treasured friend and colleague. Bring your brushes and come paint! What point of entry will you choose into a worshipful, grace-filled experience at Ghost Ranch? Our programming is diverse. June offerings focus on peace and social justice. The new Signs of the Times week will feature a formidable charismatic team of theologians, educators, ministers, biologists, poets, anthropologists, and musicians coming together to animate a conversation about watershed discipleship and the stewardship of our natural resources. Youth Week Basecamp! takes place in the same week to enhance the intergenerational participation in this important present and future issue and to provide camaraderie, risk-taking and fun in a safe and worshipful space.

July plays host to the annual Festival of the Arts, unfolding across three weeks of incredible community, talent and arts. Family Week occurs the week of July 4th and features a new teaching artist and old Ranch traditions. Chorale and Gospel Choir will fill the air with music, praise, and joy! Fall Writing and Arts Festival flows into a second week to accommodate requests for more workshops, and the chance to engage across the arts during one of the most beautiful months of the year. October brings a special weekend with Diana Butler Bass, author of Grateful: The Transformative Power of Giving Thanks, and fall progresses into the alternative Thanksgiving inter-tribal gourd dance and Christmas visits to the Pueblos. Like choosing a special order from a menu, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve designed six icons to give you a quick way of gleaning what each course offers: Art, Science, Religion, South West Culture, Music, and Body, Mind, Spirit. See them on page 14. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve standardized our program rates so you can identify your lodging configuration and price point and be free to choose the nature of your experience at Ghost Ranch from 6-night or 5-night formats. A few retreats are shorter and rates are listed with the retreat. If you are an artist, consider our Open Studio rates for use of the darkroom, pottery studio or silversmith studio. Come and see how it is that this one space, one place, endears a person and is so deeply and quickly cherished and beloved. I hope we will have a chance to meet and say hello in the dining hall. Wishing you continuing grace in 2018. God Bless,

Layne Kalbfleisch, M.Ed., Ph.D.

RATE PACKAGES FOR 2018 Program Package Program package rates include your tuition, lodging (based on preferred type) and meals (dinner the day of your arrival, 3 meals per day on your workshop days and breakfast on the day of checkout). Some art workshops will have an additional list of course materials or supplies that will be available from your instructor or you will be asked to bring with you. All rates are per person, double occupancy unless otherwise specified.

DISCOVER ANCIENT CULTURES

“My husband and I went last week to Ghost Ranch to take a class on Chacoan culture with Martha Yates PhD. We are so pleased we did this with Martha. She took us to all the major ruins in the park which are AMAZING! We learned so much more than just driving in and going around on our own.” 5 of 5 stars, TripAdvisor— Reviewed by parkvillekc

SENIOR HIGH YOUTH INITIATIVE

Seeing Differently continued on page 24

This summer’s Senior High Youth Initiative recognizes that by the time ranch youth reach this age, they may think they have seen and done it all during their annual summer visit. Old timers and newcomers alike will be challenged to ‘See Differently’. Have you ever stared at something so long that it starts to look like something else or seen its potential to transform? Maybe that’s you!

Coming to Visit in June? June 17-23, Youth Service Corps

This week is about stewardship and service learning. 20 hours will be dedicated to service around Ghost Ranch (painting, gardening, repairing, etc.). Spend one day out in local communities with local youth, farmers, and community leaders. Outdoor adventure and team building are sure to be a part of your week, too! See page 23. June 24-30, Youth Week BASECAMP! Provisions for the Expedition An adventurous life requires a good “home base”, a core that feeds and strengthens us. Explore the base camp gear that helps us navigate the valleys and mountains we all encounter such as quality community, growing faith, honoring and caring for your body, your mind, and your spirit. This week will be enhanced by the generous hearts and musical talents of the Zehnder Brothers. See Youth Week, page 25.

Coming to Visit in July? Spend your week with SHYI leads, Liz Arenberg and Robin Keck, photographer and stonecarver. Activities may include digital and darkroom photography with high (bring your 35mm or DLSR camera) and low tech (learn to make a low-cost pinhole camera) tools. On that hike you take into Box Canyon, whether it is the first time or one of many, you’ll hunt for rocks learning just what Ghost Ranch is really made of and then spend time unearthing a figure from within. Bring a 35mm camera, DLSR, or camera device (tablet or phone in a protective case), good hiking shoes, your best jokes and stories, and your curiosity!

YOUTH WEEK BASECAMP! PROVISIONS FOR THE EXPEDITION Sunday, June 24 to Saturday, June 30 Host: Tully Fletcher, Associate Pastor Youth and Young Adult Ministry, Orangewood Presbyterian Church, Phoenix, AZ G180611 Communal Bath: $425 adults and youth

“God has planted greatness in you. Let today be the beginning of a great adventure as you step into the gifts God has given you.” Joyce Meyer

An adventurous life requires a “home base” that feeds and strengthens us. Explore the base camp gear that helps us navigate the valleys and mountains we all encounter such as community, faith and honoring your body, mind and spirit. Through small group worship and outdoor adventure we will play and pray together to discover the base camp gear already within us. Youth week occurs with the Signs of the Times, a social justice workshop which will examine our relationship with water. A principle called ‘watershed discipleship’ calls our faith communities to steward and protect the watersheds they inhabit. The week will be enriched with the musical talents of the Zehnder Brothers.

Note: There is a 10% discount for youth groups of 15 or more.

For 27 years, Ghost Ranch has hosted leaders in the Church, international affairs, politics and social justice organizations in annual discussion regarding moral issues facing church and society. This year we build on the theme bringing together biologists, a poet and medical anthropologist, musicians, theologians, educators and community leaders.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES

Fostering Watershed Discipleship Sunday, June 24 to Saturday, June 30 To paraphrase an argument made in 1968 by Senegalese environmentalist Baba Dioum, we won’t save places we don’t love; we can’t love places we don’t know, and we don’t know places we haven’t learned. A symbiotic, relational ethos of watershed literacy and stewardship is crucial to the survival and ﬂ ourishing of traditional societies. Watershed Discipleship is a “triple entendre” that recognizes we are in a watershed historical moment of crisis, focuses on our intrinsically bioregional locus as followers of Jesus, and urges us to become disciples of our watersheds.” ~ Ched Myers, 2016

“El agua es vida’ translated from Spanish means ‘water is life.’ In the high desert of Northern New Mexico, water is not just a natural resource, it is a feature of culture, tradition, community, and the partnerships that sustain life. The high desert of northern New Mexico is an artifact of a great ancient sea and the catalytic forces that shaped this place.

We’ll use hand forming techniques to make bowls, pots, beads, animals, and spirit creatures out of clay and found objects. Our pieces will be fired in a pit that we dig using grasses, wood, and dried manure as fuel, based on traditional techniques used across the Southwest to fire pottery. Search out clay deposits on Ghost Ranch to create with and learn to find and use clay from your own backyard or local riverbank.

new The Mandala Project Guillermo Delgado G180737 The word “mandala” comes from the classical Indian language of Sanskrit. Explore the contemplative practice of drawing and painting your own mandalas. Draw and paint them using a variety of art techniques and materials, including watercolors, acrylics, inks, and markers. This course is open to everyone and painting and drawing experience are not required.

“Our stop at Ghost Ranch and the hike up the Chimney Rock Trail was a highlight of our recent trip to NM. Stunningly gorgeous mountain views.....the colors glow and would, I expect, change with the time of day and season. The landscape is vast and quiet and full of soul. A place to leave the world behind for a bit. No wonder Georgia O’Keeffe found inspiration here.” — “Cheryl C Yelp Review

GRACE, PEACE, COMPASSION, LOVE. We pray that Ghost Ranch, its landscape and its people, staff and visitors alike continue to touch and transform lives in big and small ways. Our hearts and prayers continue to be with all of those victimized by violence and those distressed from the aftermath of natural disasters. May everyone with troubled minds find peace instead of chaos. May those in distress find comfort and relief. May those in need find us all to be caring and compassionate. Take time to remember others through acts of kindness and assistance. Take time to express words of gratitude for all of the blessings in our daily lives, no matter how difficult that life may be at times. Thank you, to all and for all, friends of Ghost Ranch!

FALL WRITING & ARTS FESTIVAL Sunday, October 7 to Saturday, October 13 new Singing in the Dark Times Anita Skeen G181032 The playwright Bertolt Brecht wrote, “In the dark times, will there be singing? Yes, there will be singing. About the dark times.” Rather than fret or rant or boil over today’s “dark times” let’s sing and make art – a poem, a story, an essay – of your passions and positions. We’ll absorb the poems of Walt Whitman, Adrienne Richor, James Baldwin and Mark Doty who did sing in a dark time. Learn how they made their voices memorable and powerful through language, structure and imagination.

new Opening the Doors of the Poem Mark Doty G181022 In the great poem “Boardwalk,” poet Herbert Morris remembers a childhood gift, a Chinese puzzle box. Slide a part of the box open to reveal a second puzzle box inside. This object is a metaphor for the way poets work. An image strikes you, a line ﬂoats into your head – working with these reveals more and more. Often poets stop writing before reaching the heart of the second puzzle. Write each day and explore undiscovered possibilities. Depart with a sheaf of new poems and tools you can use when you’re stuck and need to go a little deeper.

new Beauty in Brevity: The Art of the Short Essay Colleen Anderson G181042 A well-crafted short essay is intimate, heartfelt and moving. It combines the narrative ﬂow of ﬁction, the concise quality of lyric poetry and the emotional power of song. Explore a few of the many inspirations for short essays from childhood memories to pet peeves to passionate beliefs. Hear essays from some masters of the art; gather ideas by using writing prompts; shape free writing into essays; read aloud; and revise rough drafts until they’re polished jewels.

new Telling the Emotional Truth – Adventures on the Frontier of Fiction and Memoir Catherine Watson, Jane O’Reilly

G181017

Challenge traditional ways of telling life stories. Rather than arguing fact-versus-fiction, we suggest that truth may better be found where fact and fiction intersect. Through discussion and writing, participants will experiment with different viewpoints and seek to answer these questions: Who has the right to someone’s life story? If the goal is sharing experience with others, does absolute accuracy matter.

new Capturing Light in Color in Plein Air Rose Irelan G181024 Imagine yourself in the elegant landscapes that Georgia O’Keeffe embraced in her work.

CASA DEL SOL Private Bath, Shared Bath & Hermitages

Casa del Sol hosts Ghost Ranch courses that are spiritual in nature, and its rooms are set aside for participants in classes with a “CDS” in the course number. This charming, historic hacienda was built in the 1930s. Anchored under the Puerto de Cielo rock formation two miles from the main Ranch campus, it has a spacious courtyard looking out on the desert and Pedernal, Ghost Ranch’s landmark mountain. It has a fireplace, kitchen and simple living space surrounded by inspiring landscapes. Six bedrooms share three bathrooms; a seventh room has its own private bath. Most rooms have doors that open onto the courtyard. There are three hermitages that can be used for short or extended stays. The hermitages are self-contained with their own bathroom, small refrigerator, microwave and coffee pot. They are for people seeking sabbatical/retreat time.

Rooms with Communal Bath

Dorm rooms with a communal bath down the hall or in another building reflect the history and dude ranch culture of Ghost Ranch’s past. Multiple bunk beds and very simple furnishings keep them among Ghost Ranch’s most affordable options. Mesa units, very rustic, have one bedroom with two beds (2 sets of bunks, or a twin + bunk bed) and a dresser, chair, shelf, mirror and reading lamp. Some rooms have a sink; shared bath with a sink and a toilet are located in each building, down the breezeway. Showers are located in nearby buildings. These units sleep up to three people. Some buildings have a central lounge area with large screen windows with stunning views. A few rooms on the main level sleep up to seven or eight people and are perfect for groups. Some rooms have a closet, dresser, chair and desk; others have closets and sofas. Large communal bathrooms and showers are located outside, a few steps down a breezeway or covered porch. Staff House has smaller rooms with two twin beds in each room. It has comfortable interior communal spaces and open fields for play and stargazing and is close to the Dining Hall.

HOST RANCH is a unique combination of natural beauty, paleontology, archaeology, history, geology and art. It is not just the values of each of these separate aspects of Ghost Ranch, but rather the synergy of its beauty, its scientific value, its cultural and historical traditions and its spirituality that make it like no other place in the world.
