Retreat Host & Harp Guide
My desire to host a retreat for harpists sparked back in 2024 when I attended a songwriting retreat that completely shifted my perspective, showing me the power of being held in an intentional space where creativity, community, and daily life were seamlessly woven together. I was given room to breathe and reconnect with my artistry in a deeper and more meaningful way. I returned home more inspired, more open, and more connected to my artistry — and I knew I wanted to create that kind of container for other harpists.
Since then, I’ve hosted two incredible harp retreats (May 2025 and January 2026), each with its own unique energy and dynamic. When we gather and share our stories, a common thread often emerges. Many of us were classically trained — I hold both a BA in Music and a MM in Harp Performance — and were guided toward orchestral paths. Somewhere along the way, some of us experienced burnout, stepped away, or explored entirely different careers. And yet, we found our way back to the harp — whether as a creative outlet, a personal refuge, or a full-time calling.
As a full-time harpist who has been performing for 10+ years, I deeply understand both the challenges and the possibilities of forging your own path. I love sharing the tools, perspectives, and encouragement I wish I had earlier in my journey — especially when it comes to improvisation, technology, and expanding beyond traditional expectations.
Many of us were taught that we needed to be perfect harpists. In that process, it’s easy to lose the creative spark — the freedom to experiment, make mistakes, and discover your own voice. This retreat is a space where you can explore new sounds and ideas without fear of judgment.
Whether you’re coming to finally learn how to use your loop pedal, explore sound baths, or simply reconnect with your instrument, all levels and ages are welcome.
My intention is for you to leave with a full cup — with new lifelong harp friends, expanded creative confidence, and a renewed connection to why you fell in love with the harp in the first place.

Dani Misegadis
House Mom & Culinary Host
The Harpist Haven is a truly special experience and community that I didn’t know I needed. I’ve fallen in and out of love with the harp and continue to search for how it fits into my life as a working mom. I went to the first Harpist Haven retreat expecting to cook and clean, but I came back rejuvenated; inspired by resilient, creative, and supportive harpists on such unique harp journeys. Adrienne has a magical ability to attract a community of unapologetically authentic human beings and I’m so thankful to be a part of it. Give yourself permission to relax, absorb the creative energy, and just have FUN! I can’t wait to see you there :) - Dani

WHAT HARPISTS SAID ABOUT THE LAST RETREAT
“I left the retreat with a renewed sense of confidence in my relationship with the harp and others who play the instrument. Immediately after the retreat I played one of the most fun, confident sets of my life (at a wedding) and had multiple people come up to me to tell me how amazing I was. And for the first time in my life, I allowed myself to believe it.” - Christina Thomas @rvaharpist
“I left the retreat not only with new skills and knowledge but also with lasting memories and connections!” - Eleonora Pellegrini @california_wedding_harpist
“I had the time of my absolute life… 😇😁” - Dr. Heidi Hernandez @harproyale
“The workshops were a delightful journey, covering a wide range of topics. The pace was absolutely perfect—there was just the right balance between diving into new learning, sharing personal experiences, and engaging in meaningful discussions with the group. I felt both challenged and supported throughout, and it was refreshing to connect with fellow harpists in such an open, collaborative environment.”
“Dre’s Harp Retreat in Sedona was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment I arrived, it was clear that every aspect of the retreat had been meticulously curated with passion and purpose. The focus on making attendees feel valued and engaged was evident in every detail.”
“I enjoyed every single aspect of it but if I have to choose an highlight I would say the fact that we were at the center of every experience. We had the opportunity to feel on our skin and in our soul the benefits of the sound bath, you had us experiment hands on with the harps and tech tools during the 1st night party and the composition practice and finally we had the opportunity of busking taking turns performing.”
“An eye opening full immersion into the endless possibilities of the harp world, with friends supporting you along the way.”
“Your retreat has changed the trajectory of my life. I am so grateful for the special community you are curating. “ - Pumehana Wadsworth, @harphawaii
