about

Atrium

Atrium inspires creative expression and collaboration through a distinct focus on environment, wellness and community. Atrium's ethos links back to creating a space—whether that is on a retreat, in a workshop, or at an event—that fosters a pause and interception. This can allow for an opening into a different landscape and potential recalibration. This is a moment for one to touch into what is truly important and what matters most.

With 15+ years of experience working in the music industry, longtime friends and colleagues Julia Willinger and Chrissy Stuart co-founded Atrium after noticing a lack of discourse around mental health for artists. Initially launched as a global retreat for musicians, Atrium has hosted trips in Nicaragua, Brazil, and Joshua Tree. Now expanding into workshops and events in the Los Angeles area to offer therapeutic services for individuals and groups based in expressive arts, meditation, body movement, and counseling.

Atrium provides artists and industry professionals with tools and resources to aid in daily pressures and demanding schedules. These pressures can generate anxiety, depression, and substance dependency, often leading to creative blocks and burnout. 

We believe that community, collaboration, and imagination are vital to creative circles and foster these values through our retreats, workshops and events. We support individuals in finding their flow and inspiration by offering a true retreat from the intense demands placed on artists in today’s world.
