Gold Country Mini-Retreat

May 17, 2025

Auburn, CA

Since 2010 we've held annual Gold Country mini-retreats in beautiful Auburn, CA, nestled in the Sierra foothills. Like our other mini-retreats, this is a one-day event that combines discussion of a book (usually nonfiction) with a screening of a related film. There is a small charge, and lunch is provided.

The next Gold Country Mini-Retreat is being planned for Spring-Summer 2026.

 

In recent years, the Gold Country Mini-Retreat has featured discussions of The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown, Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann; The Brothers by Steven Kinzer; Seven Years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer; and Queen of the Desert by Gertrude Bell; along with film adaptations or related films.
