Explore how movement, shared experiences, and a little play can create the conditions for more meaningful dialogue and connection. Designed for University of Michigan faculty and staff who facilitate conversations, networking, community-building, or group experiences, the session offers an alternative to the traditional “sit around a table and talk” approach. We’ll explore how place, movement, reflection, and intentional facilitation can help people feel more comfortable, curious, and connected — creating a stronger foundation for listening, perspective-taking, and meaningful conversation. Participants will leave with practical ideas they can bring into the conversations and communities they facilitate.
Please enter UMMA through the door by the large white head sculpture. Your guides will meet you in the museum lobby. Restrooms, water stations and galleries are all accessible by elevator. Please keep food and drink in the lobby to protect the art.
