Description
The program will introduce three new program workshops developed by professional teaching artists in collaboration with mindfulness practitioners, partners, and museum staff. The project team will work with local artists and partner with the idaho commission on the arts to identify those with training for developing workshops for older adults as well as arrange for training for new teaching artists. Program participants will develop skills within an artistic medium, view and discuss artworks in the collection, observe a behind-the-scenes aspect of the museum, and benefit from ways that the artistic practice can contribute to general wellbeing, such as developing patience, reducing anxiety, and centering mindfulness for mental acuity, mental dexterity, and overall mental health. Each workshop will culminate in a group activity for reflection and celebration of artistic accomplishments and growth.
