Come to Camas & come back to your senses

‘Every time I walk down the track to Camas, the same thing happens. Just as I reach the crest of the last hill and the sea comes into view, and then the roof of the building, I feel a weight lift from my shoulders (even if I’m carrying a rucksack).

It doesn’t matter what mood I’m in, or whether I’m worried about something, or nothing, or even whether I know who’ll be there. Every time, my breathing relaxes and my heart sings. I feel that I am coming back to my senses.’ Kathy Galloway, from the forward to ‘Down the Track: A Camas anthology’

Camas, the Iona Community’s outdoor centre on the Isle of Mull, welcomes lots of groups every year. But it’s not just for groups.

Camas has a number of themed weeks that are open to individuals, families, groups of friends, to anyone who would like to come down the track and join in our off-grid community life.

Bring a project or a blank canvas or page to Creative Week.
