As part of ArtworxTO, artist Jessica Lin’s The Serenity Experience in Riverside aims to bring calm and spark joy during these challenging times. It’s an immersive public art exhibit in Toronto’s Riverside neighbourhood this winter which you can view on your evening health break along Queen Street East, and virtually. The artwork explores the question of what triggers our brain to feel calmness and happiness, and suggests ideas as to how we can deliberately harness this to increase our sense of personal well being.
This ‘Happiness Tips’ series of the project provide tips linked to short talks by artist Jessica Lin with special guests – click on each of the tips below to check out the videos!
