Blanton Museum of Art Combines Yoga & Art

FRIDAY, 28 MARCH 2008

TEXAS - The University of Texas’ Blanton Museum of Art is more than just a place of art. In 2006, the museum offered different programs and events series with the idea of attracting a diverse range of participants and visitors beyond the conventional art society. Brian Whisenhunt, manager of public programs at Blanton, said, “The main focus is to connect art and ideas. We try and connect with people’s other interests. We want to present that perspective in relation to art."

Yoga classes are part of the museum’s programs. The classes are available on every third Thursday of the month. The patrons become as much a part of the aesthetics as the art. Olivia Silver, admissions and education assistant at the Blanton, demonstrates poses and discusses the works in the class’ surroundings.
