Host Your Gathering at Ghost Ranch

Set against towering red rock cliffs and northern New Mexico’s vivid skies, Ghost Ranch is a nonprofit retreat and education center where people come to slow down, reconnect, and think more deeply. For generations, artists, educators, spiritual leaders and seekers have gathered here, drawn by the land’s beauty and the ranch’s spirit of inquiry, discovery, and care.

Ghost Ranch is not simply a venue. Groups are guided by a small, passionate staff who know the ranch deeply and facilitate mission-aligned experiences shaped by learning, fellowship, and spiritual nourishment. On-site lodging, dining, and flexible indoor and outdoor meeting spaces allow participants to fully disconnect and engage with one another and the surrounding environment.

What Ghost Ranch Offers

  • A powerful, unforgettable landscape that naturally inspires reflection and creativity
  • A mission rooted in enrichment, exploration, and soul care
  • Dedicated staff who actively support groups and help shape meaningful experiences
  • A place to escape the noise and distraction of daily life and be present with people, ideas, and the natural world

Our team works closely with groups to ensure each gathering feels intentional, supported, and inspiring.
