Experience greater mind-body connection through our Artful Meditation and Expression program. Participants will join art therapist Bodhi Simpson in a guided meditation session followed by an art making experience. This offering will support your personal comfort with creative expression, increase self-awareness, and offer simple tools to support emotional wellbeing.
In January, our theme of Let’s Reflect is inspired by Sister by Elizabeth Catlett.
Artful Meditation and Expression is part of the museum’s wellness initiative, Let Art Inspire, which includes a variety of programs that connect mind, body, and art in innovative ways.
