Events Calendar

On Sat., September 28, come explore mindfulness through health, wellness, art and food during a full-day experience at Central Library planned by team members Nita Ambedkar, Kiran Nautiyal,  and Vidya Matreas as part of the Library Takeover program! Mindfulness the Indian Way is designed for those who want to learn how the rich traditions of Indian culture can help them feel more present and aware in their daily lives.

Beginning at 9am and continuing throughout the day, you can drop in to try your hand at different mindful practices, including yoga, art, traditional dance, and more - all led by local artists and organizations! Plus, a mini-bazar of local vendors selling jewelry, art, food and more will be available for attendees to peruse for the duration of the event outside the community room on the 3rd floor.

Whether you're new to mindfulness or looking to deepen your understanding, this event will provide a rich, immersive experience that blends cultural traditions with the principles of mindful living. Join us in rooms 301 and 302 at Central Library and discover the art of mindfulness the Indian way!
