Pacific Northwest Flute Gathering on Vashon Island
a.k.a. “Vashon Island Flute Gathering”
Monday, October 6 – Thursday, October 9, 2025
Now in its 29th year, the gathering returns to the beautiful Vashon Island in the Pacific Northwest. Our event is one of the longest-running residential retreats for players of the Native American style flute, indigenous to the North American continent. The intimate location is a wooded setting directly on the beach of Puget Sound. All classes, concerts, meals and housing are on-site and are included in the retreat tuition. A range of housing accommodations is available either in cabins or the retreat center.
The multi-day retreat features workshops, classes, playing sessions and concerts focusing on Native flute, didgeridoo and other instruments, lead by some of the finest teachers, performers and recording artists in the US. Enjoy making music in a supportive, non-competitive atmosphere designed to maximize curiosity, learning and creativity.
Space is limited at this popular multi-day retreat. Advance registration is required.
