Rest and Reflection
Sunday is for slowing, reflecting, and looking ahead—part networking, part spiritual craft recharge in the gentle beauty of the Ozarks.
Folks will be departing and arriving throughout the day, which is fine and to be expected. All of the events scheduled for the day are leisurely and low impact.
Schedule
9:00 am - Breakfast/Uplifting Message with Steve Quillian
​
10:00 am - Artisan Round Table - Discussion, Reflections, Question and Answer
​
2:00 pm - Preview and Prep for Total Window Makeover: Advanced Frame Edition
​
6:00 pm - Orientation and Planning for Participants of Total Window Makeover: Advanced Frame Edition.
​
Sunday is about slowing down, sharing stories, and looking forward together.
Come for the Weekend
Not everyone can commit to the full event—and that’s okay. Come for a weekend. Depart refreshed, inspired, and connected.
Friday to Sunday is enough to reconnect, learn, laugh, and meet the craft community without paying another workshop tuition.
A Reunion of Artisans
If you’ve taken a Window Craft workshop—whether for a day or a week—you are part of this.
The WindowLympics is your homecoming.
For newcomers, it’s a front-row seat to community—crafted over time, fueled by hand, steeped in spirit.
