Join Our First Ever

Works Weekend!

Connect. Learn. Make.

This intimate, all-inclusive retreat is a chance to immerse yourself in the art of making while building friendships, eating delicious meals, and recharging in a warm, inviting, luxury home.

November 1-3, 2024 in Cle Elum, WA

Join The Works' Founder, Kellie Phelan, and three of her talented staff for the weekend of a lifetime. With five premium workshops, five creative stations, all food and drinks provided - even an immersive hands-on learning lunch - there is something for everyone.

Outside of our creative time together, we're looking forward to spa time - between the sauna, cold plunge, and hot tub - a craft and movie night, and many more special surprises.

What’s Included?

All materials and instruction for five premium workshops, five creative stations, and one hands-on learning lunch.
All of your meals, snacks, and beverages - homemade with love - from Friday lunch to Sunday breakfast. We can accommodate gluten-free and vegan diets. If you have questions about other allergies or dietary restrictions, please contact us before booking.
Scheduled downtime so you have time to relax and recharge, whether that includes a walk in the woods, retreating to your room to read a good book, or time in the sauna or hot tub.
We'll welcome you with a bag full of thoughtful goodies. You'll go home with all of your completed projects, the skills to continue to explore these unique crafts at home, and a very, very full heart.

When you sit down for meal or visit the always-stocked beverage bar and snack station, The Works’ staff will make sure you feel like you're at a boutique hotel or a fabulous dinner party.

We'll use fresh, seasonal ingredients and prepare all of your meals and snacks from scratch in the home's chef's kitchen. The food will be healthy-ish, vegetarian-leaning, beautifully presented and always absolutely delicious.

The Food and Beverage Experience

Here's a sneak peek at some of the homemade dishes we're planning:

French breakfast crepes
Freshly baked focaccia
Roasted cauliflower and garlic soup
Butternut squash risotto
Cinnamon apple quick bread
Harvest lunch salad bar
S'mores bar
Italian spritzer

Expect hearty breakfasts and lunches. And for dinner, you'll sit down to an elegantly plated, four-course meal with wine one evening. The other night after a festive aperitivo hour, you'll enjoy a multi-course Italian-style meal.

During the hands-on learning lunch you'll make and eat fresh cheese, from-scratch tortillas, salsa macha and more - and you'll bring home all of the recipes and know-how to make them again at home.
