Tyee Arts is a retreat and learning center set on 80 private acres in the foothills of the North Cascades, just 45 minutes north of Seattle. We host educational workshops, creative experiences, and community events that celebrate art, nature, and lifelong learning. Our space fosters connection—between people, land, and the traditions that shape us.

Founded by John and Laurie Fairman, Tyee Arts was created as a place where education, creativity, and land stewardship come together. With a dedicated learning center, a commercial kitchen, and access to nature trails and wetlands, we offer a unique space for workshops, retreats, and gatherings. Whether you're here to develop a new skill, engage with the land, or meet like-minded individuals, we invite you to be part of our growing community.
