"I left full – full of memories, inspiration, and kinship. It is not very often you meet a group of strangers and, in the course of five days, become connected through lived experience, art, and the opportunity to be in a beautiful place like Marrakech. Philoxenia is a very special experience and one that is worth your while as an artist, writer, and human.” - Isidora T., Philoxenia Retreat Attendee

"I enthusiastically recommend the PhiloXenia retreat to Black writers + aspiring writers who want to be in community with other brilliant, dreamy, and creative folks in a really beautiful setting. I left with a strong sense of direction and a desire to really pick up my writing practice again." - Grace A., Philoxenia Retreat Attendee
