Join us for a morning of artful reflection and handwritten connection. In a fast-moving world of digital messages, take a thoughtful pause to reconnect with the timeless art of letter-writing, guided by creativity and meaningful conversation. We will begin with a stroll through the sculpture garden, taking time to observe, discuss, and respond to selected works and their creators. Together, we will explore questions of artistic intention, personal interpretation, and emotional response while practicing the essential creative act of thinking deeply and expressing ourselves with care. You will then be invited to write a letter to an artist, whether living or past, or to someone with whom you wish to share your reflections. This is a chance to slow down, be present, and engage meaningfully with art through writing. All materials will be provided, including guidance on how to compose, personalize, address, and send your handwritten letter. The San Diego Museum of Art on Facebook / Instagram
