Mindfulness Meditation: Visual Mindfulness

Present-moment awareness is essential to experience and appreciate any work of art, but it can be elusive and we often find ourselves distracted or lost in thought. In this uncertain time, the practice of mindfulness meditation can offer a sense of calm amidst our to-do lists and allow us to more fully appreciate the gift of each day. The Frye Art Museum is offering virtual Mindfulness Meditation sessions while we are unable to offer in-person programming.
