Mindful Meditation with Catherine Clarke

The Cambridge Art Association invites visitors to a unique opportunity as part of their fall fundraising: a thoughtful combination of guided meditation with art appreciation in the Kathryn Schultz Gallery on Saturday, November 15 from 2 to 3:30 p.m. This session will be guided by Catherine Clarke, who combines her meditation practice with her Visual Thinking Strategies training to create a meaningful blend of mindful awareness and artistic engagement. Catherine will adapt her meditation guidance to complement the Cambridge Art Association’s current National Prize Show exhibition, offering participants an opportunity to explore inner stillness while surrounded by inspiring artwork.

Designed specifically for beginners, this session will include gentle breathing techniques and light stretching to help participants settle into a comfortable meditative state. Through focus on inner strength and calming breath-work, participants will have the opportunity to release tension, recharge, and reconnect with their body and breath while reclaiming a sense of well-being. With only eight spaces available, this intimate session provides a special opportunity to practice meditation in the tranquil setting of our gallery, immersed among beautiful works of art. The 90-minute session will begin with one hour of guided meditation, followed by light refreshments including fresh fruit and infused water to help participants transition back to their day in a nourished and grounded way.
