Join us for an evening of art, connection and reflection during this workshop led by artist and Gallery Guide Carin Walsh @carinwalshart and inspired by the art and themes contained within Maria Magdalena Campos-Pons: Behold. The experience begins with a guided tour of the galleries, highlighting several visionary works by Campos-Pons that are rooted in expressions of love and human connection. After gathering inspiration within Beyond, Charlotte Brady @stillnessatheart will lead us on a guided meditation to center our hearts and minds on a person, experience or moment in life. Our hearts filled with reflection, we will then write messages to form the centerpiece of our own portable altar-like remembrances to bring home.
