A songwriter's retreat

---

What do you get when you put six great singer songwriters in the same place for a couple of days and ask them to create? Fabulous music!

Join us for a long weekend in November to see what Sunny Jim, Donny Brewer, Coley McCabe, Thom Shepherd, Carrie Welling and Eric Erdman come up during a stay in our beautiful and laidback Suncoast. Our host hotel is Casey Key Resorts in Osprey, Sunny Jim's back yard.

This is the weekend after Meeting of the Minds and we want to give these performers a chance to chill and relax after the craziness of Key West.  We can all enjoy the "old Florida" feel of Osprey. We are challenging our songwriters to write new songs about our beautiful part of Florida.

And you can be part of the creative process! If you register for the whole weekend, you can send us song ideas or lyrics that will then be passed on the the songwriters. The artists will take your ideas and try to work them into new songs written specifically for the Suncoast Serenade! They're spending a few days with us and we'll be showing them around so they can experience the best of the Suncoast.

This weekend also offers weekend participants a chance to learn more about the creative process that songwriters use and listen to what inspires them. We have scheduled music seminars in the Freight Room of the Historic Venice Train Depot for these sessions, but because of limited space, seats are only available to registrants who book The Works!, Weekend Package.

Mingling with some of your favorite singer/songwriters, original music and fun in the Southwest Florida sunshine, what a great way to spend the weekend. Our travel partners, Travel by Georgia, have arranged great room rates for us and you can book directly with the hotel.
