145-Acre Eco-Retreat, Immersive Art Park Opens Outside Of Denver [WATCH]
There's a a new retreat center in Colorado. Located on 145 acres of forested landscape the eco-retreat & immersive art park is just southwest of Denver.
Its called Everland.
After the founder, Jonny, had a near death experience, where he fell three stories off a bridge in a serious motorcycle accident, the vision for Everland came.
For several weeks, while in the hospital, he listened to people's stories and said that "it was then that I realized: all we have is our connection to and experience with others" on the website. With the connection of his vision and understanding of the need for connection, the founder went to work to make this a reality.
According to their website, Everland is a "fusion of leading-edge art installations, experiential outdoor recreation, unique camping options, mesmerizing zones and venues, delightful amenities, and open exploration".
A Kickstarter was created to help bring the project to life. Rewards for monetary pledges start at $555 and continue to a $9,999 option called "Keys to the Castle".
We aim to break down the daily barriers of how we connect with ourselves and the world around us by providing a space to co-create, play & delight in our collective imagination.
The goal for the retreat is to be "a place that celebrated each person as valuable".
