Visual Fitness Workout:

Thankfulness, Gratitude, and Our Lives!

Tuesday, November 19, 2024   6:30-8:00 PM ET

Presented by Smith Center for the Healing Arts

Join Renee Sandell for a hands-on, interactive art “workout,” designed to strengthen our sense of thankfulness in this season of gratitude.   We will use her Balanced Way of Seeing® method to explore multiple layers of meaning in Norman Rockwell’s painting “Freedom From Want,” created in 1943 as part of his Four Freedoms series.  We will consider this work and its relevance to our and others’ lives. Reflecting on past and present moments in our history, we can rediscover sources of our own thankfulness and gratitude.
