Students at University of Nebraska-Lincoln and other students in the Lincoln area are invited to a Study Break at the Sheldon Museum of Art. The free event is hosted by the Sheldon Student Advisory Board.

At the Study Break there will be 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 and Andy Warhol accompany and inspire them during art-making activities and final studies.

Yoga sessions will begin at 5:15 and 6:15 p.m. and will last approximately 45 minutes. Meditation sessions will begin at 6:15 and 7:15 p.m. and will last 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 making each a productive and creative place for students to study.

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.
