Karen Buttwinick California, USA There were so many magical moments at the Ireland IEA Wax Across the Water Celtic ConVergence Retreat, but what I’ll remember most were the lively conversations I had with other artists from around the world and learning from instructors, who were so incredibly generous sharing their knowledge, tips, and tricks. Inspirational speeches given by Regina, Lora, and Cheryl were unforgettable as they set a welcoming tone and captivated everyone with their warmth, enthusiasm, and encouragement.

On the first evening of our retreat, we were greeted by beaming faces, glasses of champagne, and lovely flowers at the historic Mulranny Park. 70

IEA President Regina Quinn and past President Kay Burnett set a warm tone for our upcoming week together.
