Presented in partnership with the Porch Writers’ Collective and Tayana L. Hardin, PhD, MDiv | ARTS Liturgist, this three-part workshop series invites participants to slow down, reflect, and renew through art and writing. As current studies attest, contemplative practices like expressive writing, art viewing, and meditation can support human health, healing, and well-being. Join us as we explore how these modalities can promote healthy self-awareness, personal enjoyment, and care for both self and community.
In this series, we’ll take time to closely examine artworks featured in the exhibitions An Indigenous Present, Shimmer: Dreaming the Posthuman, and Beauty and Ritual: Judaica from the Jewish Museum, New York and then respond through guided writing prompts.
September 12—Part I will focus on An Indigenous Present.
October 24—Part II will focus on Shimmer: Dreaming the Posthuman.
November 14—Part III will focus on Beauty and Ritual: Judaica from the Jewish Museum, New York.
