Breathe in sound and silence through guided meditation as you listen to music more viscerally than ever before, meditating to the playing of jazz pianist Fred Hersch, guided by Matthew Weiner, Associate Dean in the Princeton University Office of Religious Life. This is a FREE, unticketed opportunity to indulge in attentive, focused, and mindful listening. No prior experience with meditation necessary. If desired, attendees may bring floor seating (mat/cushion/etc); seating will be on stage, with chairs provided. Capacity is limited, and we advise participants to arrive early. Doors to the hall will open and meditation instruction will begin at 12:00PM. Doors will close once capacity is reached. The event will conclude by 1:30PM.
