Gather Together. Create and Connect.
Val’s Place Indiana is your ideal getaway for scrapbooking, quilting, and crafting—a space designed for creativity, relaxation, and connection.
Join one of our public retreats, open to all crafters! Whether you're coming solo or with a friend or two, you'll share the retreat with fellow makers who understand your passion.
It’s the perfect way to meet new people, spark fresh inspiration, and enjoy a creative weekend away. Enjoy spacious work areas, cozy overnight accommodations, and a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere where your creativity can thrive.
At Val’s Place, you’ll find more than just a retreat—you’ll find a community of makers who love to create and connect.
