CREATE AT NATURE’S PACE
Tofte Lake Center (TLC) is a non-profit organization that provides residencies for artists who crave dedicated time to work on their projects, for creatives who seek individual growth through guided workshops or retreats, for arts organizations that want to make time to re/focus on their goals or mission, for arts leaders to gather to exchange ideas with colleagues in their field. TLC is on a pristine lake near Ely, Minnesota, and adjacent to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
“Every time I go to TLC, my life changes. Things come up for me.
It is personal and artistic growth for me.”
— Alanna Morris, dancer & choreographer
the tofte lake experience
“This residency was one of the best weeks of my life. I had unfettered, independent time to immerse myself in my art and in my creative process in the very special place that is TLC. I feel like I was cleansed and renewed, becoming more connected to myself and my artistry in a deep, internal place.”
— Gemma Isaacson, choreographer & dancer
