About Us
Zion Grove is a place of pause and purpose.
Nestled in the hills of rural Pennsylvania, it is a privately-run artist retreat offering refuge to serious creatives seeking time, space, and silence to complete meaningful work. Each year, we host a small number of writers, sculptors, painters, and makers in architecturally significant cabins, designed for clarity of thought and depth of process.
This is a place for human ideas, and creativity.
This is a place to escape artificial intelligence, in pursuit of one’s own mind.
A place for quiet thought, creative solitude, and rebellion against the attention economy.
​
Zion Grove is not a program or brand, it’s a space of purpose and clarity, designed for those who value craftsmanship, stillness, and the creative process of the human soul.
​
We also offer seasonal creative education for children, continuing our mission to preserve wonder, skill, and imagination for generations to come.
