Nights at The Joslyn

Thu Jan 8, 5PM–8PM

Healthy Start with Art

Monthly Nights at The Joslyn events are evenings for art immersion. Come out for art talks, art making, special programs, and tasty food and drinks (for purchase). This month, we are celebrating the many ways that spending time with art and being creative can help us become happier, healthier, and more resilient human beings.

A look at the fun this month from 5–8 pm:   

Begin at our Welcome Table in the Hawks Pavilion! Pick up a program and map for the evening. We can let you know about membership opportunities, upcoming programs, our Bloomberg Connects digital guide, and Art Card self-guide resources. We also can help with any accessibility needs.   
Don’t miss our talk in Abbott Hall* at 6 pm with special guest speaker, Lauren Medici, Director of Partnerships & Programs at Opera Omaha, who will speak about Arts, Creativity & Health.
Join us for a soothing atmospheric sound experience with Jason Horacek, Tere Lea, and Havalynn Russell.
Create a work of art in the studio.
Slow down and sketch in the galleries.
Check out our Art Cart station, with opportunities to touch hands-on materials and talk about art with our friendly Gallery Volunteers.  
The Founder’s Room is designated as a quiet space for this event. 
Due to the generous support of Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program, Dripping Earth: Cannupa Hanska Luger exhibition tickets are free to all during Nights at The Joslyn; always free to Joslyn members. 
Don’t forget to check out more great spaces—The Cafe offers food and drink for sale. The Shop has beautiful art items for all ages and interests. If you are part of an intergenerational group, be sure to visit Art Works: A Place for Curiosity, an interactive space with nine different art activity stations (children must be accompanied by adults).

*Assistive listening system is available for programs in Abbott Hall.
