Education and Public Programs at Grand Forks Art Gallery are intended to encourage participation and increase accessibility to arts and culture. As a cornerstone cultural institution, the gallery works in conjunction with the local arts, social services, and not-for-profit community to provide relevant, responsive engagement opportunities.
Join yoga instructor Leah Carnahan for a weekly somatic yoga class at the Grand Forks Art Gallery. Her heartfelt classes are best described as welcoming, inspiring, safe, playful, grounding, and peaceful. Leah feels that a balance of movement and stillness together brings a natural inspiration to every moment.
While she facilitates gentle movement, she encourages those around her to listen to their innermost voice and make the postures their own. Leah feels that loving acceptance of the moment as it is and of yourself as you are allows for the most rewarding practice. Learn More Here.
