2024 Reading Retreat

Curl up with a good book in a great location! Shaker Village is known as an idyllic setting for guests to unplug and get away from it all. But, have you ever considered that the Village would be a perfect location to read a good book…or two? Come for a weekend getaway to enjoy reading while meeting fellow book lovers and participating in discussions and book-themed fun.

This package includes a Friday and Saturday night stay in one of Shaker Village's historic guest rooms, a copy of the upcoming book, Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts: Stories and Recipes from Five Generations of Black Country Cooks by Kentucky Poet Laurete and award-winning author Crystal Wilkinson, that will be mailed out to each retreat participant, an in-room gift of a journal and pen, exclusive programs to immerse you in the book, breakfast on both Saturday and Sunday, and a private dinner and book discussion on Saturday night. This package is available for either single or double-occupancy pricing.
