NSU Art Museum: Creativity Exploration
June 8, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
Saturday, June 8th from 12 – 1:30pm enjoy a mindful art-making exercise at NSU Art Museum inspired by gratitude for the work of our hands and by the unique fingerprints we leave on the world. Inspired by “earth artists” Ana Mendieta and Andy Goldsworthy, participants will make ephemeral mandalas and designs using materials from nature. Use your cell phone or camera to document and photograph your fleeting creation.
Creativity Exploration adult workshops promote the benefits of creative exploration and the mind-to-body experience. Studies have shown that 45 minutes of creative activity a day reduces stress and offers mental clarity and relaxation. In addition to producing a sense of well-being, sessions expand participants’ perceptions of forms, while increasing brain connectivity through visual and cognitive stimulation. The workshop is led by educator Lark Keeler, a specialist in mindfulness education.
Creativity Exploration is sponsored by the Charles P. Ferro Foundation. Limited space. Advance reservations required. $10 museum members; $15 non-members. Please RSVP here.
