From the Community
What women are
saying about NECC.
BLOOM completely changed how I think about my creative work. I left with three new collaborators, a renewed sense of purpose, and honestly — the best weekend of my year.
BLOOM Spring 2025
The GATHER retreat was unlike any event I’ve ever attended. Kim has a gift for creating spaces where real connection happens. I’ll be back every year.
GATHER Fall 2025
The Creative Cruise was magical. I pitched a brand partnership on the water, stitched at sunset, and made friendships I couldn’t have found anywhere else. Worth every penny.
