Start: 2025-05-18T19:30:00.000Z
Location: The Zen Art Center

**Zen Jogging** is the new initiative from the Zen Art Center and the Mind Light Way School of Zen and a form of moving meditation. It is not about speed, distance, or competition—it’s about presence and sustained awareness in every moment.

This gentle group movement practice invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with your body, nature, and community. Whether you walk, jog, or simply move mindfully, the intention is to practice mindfulness in a supportive community that meets you where you are.

We will be lightly jogging around Horn Pond (this will take about 45min) and everyone will have the option to do add a 20-min walk around the pond to cool down. 10-min out of these 20-min will be for silent walk.
This is a fun, easy way to move your body and reconnect with yourself and the natural rhythm of the world.

Come as you are. No pressure, no speed, no performance —just presence.
The event will start promptly at 1:11pm!

Note:
The event is free and donations are very much appreciated!
(Donations can be done through cashapp, venmo, zelle, and beyond!)

Welcome to The Zen Artist's Collective!

Are you seeking a sanctuary for your creativity? A space where meditation and art intertwine to inspire and uplift? Look no further. The Zen Art Collective is your haven for artistic expression, where the journey of creation becomes a moving meditation.

Each session, held at the Zen Art Center, begins with a grounding meditation practice, guiding you to center your mind and open your heart to the flow of inspiration. Under the gentle guidance of Zen Master Sebastian Rizzon, you'll learn to harness the power of meditation as a wellspring of creativity. We’ll be spending some time working on our individual art projects, so please bring something you can work on. There will also be an opportunity to share some of your work with the group if you’d like.

Whether you're an experienced artist or just starting your creative journey, our welcoming community is here to support and encourage you every step of the way. Bring your preferred art form—whether it's drawing, painting, digital art, or any other medium—and immerse yourself in a space of shared inspiration and growth. No prior art experience is necessary; all you need is the curiosity to create.
Together, we'll explore techniques that bridge the gap between meditation and art, discovering how the process of creation can become a form of moving meditation in itself. Through collaboration, conversation, and shared experiences, we'll cultivate a vibrant creative community where ideas flow freely, and artistic expression knows no bounds.

Join us at The Zen Artist's Collective and learn to turn the creative process into a path to inner peace and self-discovery. Embrace the transformative power of art and meditation—reserve your spot today and unlock the boundless potential of your creative spirit.

While the class is free of charge, donations are greatly appreciated to support the Zen Art Center's mission to cultivate inner peace and harmony in the world. Your generosity enables us to expand our schedule of offerings and continue serving our community.
