Art + Wellness: Mindfulness

A six-week program, Thursdays March 17–April 21

Join instructor Charlotte Bell and explore the UMFA collection as we seek to find stillness within ourselves. Practice slow and mindful looking at artwork as well as traditional, guided meditation. This meditation practice is perfect for beginners—everyone is welcome. Charlotte Bell has practiced yoga since 1982. Certified by B. K. S.
