ACCESSIBILITY

This event will be automatically closed-captioned on Zoom.

We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals, including individuals with disabilities, to engage fully. If you have questions about accessibility or require an accommodation such as CART captioning or ASL interpretation to participate in this event, please contact Accessibility Manager Helyn Marshall at accessibility@wexarts.org or via telephone at (614) 688-3890. Requests made by two weeks in advance will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the Wexner Center for the Arts will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.

Become a Member

Join poet and artist Anaïs Duplan on Zoom as he leads these sessions connecting our bodies and our creativity.

Whether you are a visual artist, writer, musician, or arts worker, your work requires you to channel your inner knowing. But the challenges of being an arts professional often run counter to our ability to really foster our creativity. Through mindfulness practice, Duplan leads the group in two virtual sessions, nurturing our connections with our bodies and our innate sense of imagination.
