"When we begin to practice art as inseparable from the experiences of daily living, there is no 'Art', only a way of being, fully and completely in this world." ~ Jacki
Welcome to Libelle's Hope
Libelle’s Hope is a place of creative exploration, connection, rejuvenation and meditation. We are a sensory acreage dedicated to developing empathy through shared experiences with nature and human interaction. Located along the Loup Rivers Scenic Byway, we offer an environment steeped in the Danish tradition of Hygge.
What we believe
We believe that all human beings have unlimited creative potential, yet often become stifled. Creativity is the basis for developing empathy and human connection. It unlocks the door to self discovery and personal growth, and in turn we achieve awareness and a compassionate connection with fellow human beings.
We believe that nature deficit is a real phenomenon and that the separation of humans from nature has hindered our ability to find peace and acceptance within ourselves and with each other. The “busyness” of our lives has distanced us from creative pursuits and is damaging human interaction and understanding.
