🌱 Monday Art Talk: When art connects complex ideas

What does it mean to be connected to the world around us? In To See the Earth Before the End of the World, artist Precious Okoyomon explores the relationships between nature, humanity, and the systems that shape our environment.

As we look toward 2027, Connection is one of six pillars guiding the Yeiser’s vision for the future. We believe art can help us see our place within something much larger than ourselves.

This week, take a moment to consider a time when seeing something visually helped you understand it 🌿

Monday Art Talk: What Art teaches us about Practice

Learning is a muscle you have to excersize and today we consider some ways to get the most out of practice

Practice is one of six pillars guiding the Yeiser’s vision for the future. Learning is a lifelong process, and there’s always something new to explore.

What’s something you’ve always wanted to learn? 🦋

Have a great week, and keep practicing!

We are excited for Mrs. D'Heilly to lead our art and wellness initiative. A million thank you to Kennedy Williams for writing this lovely article and leading our poetry club, "Common Grounds." Arts organizations are nothing without passionate team members and a community that continually shows up and I am very honored to be working with so many great people
