Description

Join artist and meditation teacher Stephanie Joyce for a guided exploration through The Watermill Center Collection accompanied by sound healing. Pulling from the principles of “Slow Art,” Joyce will guide participants through viewing selected pieces of ancient art, encouraging a practice of slowing down and entering a meditative space to better appreciate and connect with art and historical objects. Healing Arts @ The Watermill Center is a series of workshops and guided meditations offering the public the chance to explore the intersection of art and wellness. Through hands-on activities with a rotating roster of artists, the local community is invited to explore the healing power of art in a communal and experimental setting.
