Students from UNL and around Lincoln are invited to a “study break” at the Sheldon Museum of Art from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Dec. 10. The free event is hosted by the Sheldon Student Advisory Board.

The event will include yoga and meditation sessions to help students reduce anxiety and increase focus as finals approach. Students will also be encouraged to let the famous works of Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol and other artists accompany and inspire them during art-making activities and final studies.

Yoga sessions will begin at 5:15 and 6:15 p.m., lasting approximately 45 minutes. Meditation sessions will begin at 6:15 and 7:15 p.m. and will take approximately 15 minutes. Free food will also be provided.

After taking time to unwind and refuel, students are welcome to study in the Sheldon’s permanent collection or the boardroom. Wi-Fi will be available in both rooms.

This is the second study break night hosted by the Sheldon Student Advisory Board, a newly formed student organization working to connect the UNL community with the Sheldon Museum of Art.
