Katherine Tzu-Lan Mann – August 2021
After a profoundly difficult last year and a half – struggling through life and loss in the pandemic, and the difficulty of balancing my studio work with the reality of parenting small children during Zoom school, Good Hart was the balm I, and my family, needed.

This place is a “layer of heaven”, and I am so glad…

Samuel James Stover – October/November 2020
When I arrived in Good Hart, the leaves were all yellow and marigold, crimson and ochre. In the time I’ve been here, the leaves have fallen, but somehow Good Hart remains just as beautiful in its winter hues. Perhaps one of the most difficult things about writing – and I’m sure about any art form…
