Fields of Play: Ozarks 2026

Following in the tradition of his Fields of Play, living retreat experiences from the countryside of Gracefield, Quebec and Gesundheit! Institute, Jef Johnson continues to unite people from near and far to explore and rediscover the magic of connection.
Come join us as we enjoy incredible nature, good food, good company, and amazing moments of shared humanity in the unique setting of the Missouri Ozarks.
Clown Camp for Performers
August 10 - 15
This is a unique opportunity to spend five days learning from one of the world’s biggest fools. In addition to group workshop exercises designed to help performers ground themselves in their ideas and presentation, Jef will work with each clown individually.
The exact content of the sessions will depend on the makeup of the class. This is an opportunity for actors, clowns, educators and anyone exploring clown performance.
