Camp Singers Retreat with MPC (August 22nd-24th)
Camp Singers Retreat with MPC
Location: Camp Singers, Delhi, NY
Camp Singers is nestled on 88 acres of scenic Catskills land in Delhi/Delancey.
Delhi, New York (pronounced DEL-high) is a charming small town in the western Catskill Mountains of Delaware County. Known for its rolling hills, lush farmland, and vibrant college-town energy—thanks to SUNY Delhi—it offers a blend of rural tranquility and creative culture. The village features historic architecture, cozy cafés, farmers markets, antique shops, and easy access to outdoor adventures like hiking, fishing, and swimming. Whether you're escaping the city or seeking connection with nature and community, Delhi is a quiet gem with a warm, welcoming spirit.
The Chef: MON PETIT CANARD (MPC)
A pop-up series and restaurant concept with a daily-changing menu and music, MPC is organized by Emma Leigh Macdonald and Rowan Spencer. Influenced by their backgrounds in music and design, by St. John, bistro culture, and their home base in New York, their menus lean French with Irish influence, focus on seasonal ingredients, and always include an audio element as part of the experience.
MPC has hosted events at Time Again, Margot, Public Records, The Lot Radio, Colbo, and Rhodora, and collaborated with names like USM, OJAS, Natoora, The Standard, FWB, Sophie Lou Jacobsen, Gohar World, and Family Style.
The Workshop: Flora & Fauna — A Damascene Tile Workshop by Rama Duwaji
Join Rama Duwaji for a 2.5-hour hands-on tile workshop exploring the intricate beauty of Damascene tiles. You'll focus on the floral and fauna motifs commonly found in Syrian ceramics, learning about their symbolism and cultural significance. Through guided instruction, you’ll paint a set of four tiles inspired by native Syrian flora. Finished tiles will be glazed and ready for pick-up within two weeks.
