Join a 30-minute introductory mindfulness practice focused on experiencing art. Each session emphasizes one of our senses and includes a short talk followed by a guided meditation. The sessions prepare audiences for active art viewing in the museum. This program takes place in the Commons, the MCA’s new space for civic engagement.
Following the session, extend your experience by attending a docent-led exhibition tour.
