My Body My Temple [http://engine.nectarads.com/r?e=eyJhdiI6NzI5NzcsImF0IjoyMCwiYnQiOjAsImNtIjoxNjA4MzMsImNoIjoxOTMwLCJjciI6NTQ0MDAyLCJkbSI6NCwiZmMiOjU1NDI2OCwiZmwiOjI5MjkyMywiaXAiOiI1NC44Mi4yNDYuMjEyIiwibnciOjIwNywicGMiOjAsInByIjoxNjY2LCJydCI6MSwic3QiOjAsInVyIjoiaHR0cDovL2Fkcmllbm5lb3V0bGF3
Strangers become friends during a potluck picnic. Elderly people share their life experiences with museum goers. A law firm builds an adobe oven by dancing in mud. Tourists playfully push and hold the Parthenon. Truckers practice yoga in the museum. Visitors drink water from a spring formed by civil rights activists. Bands celebrate joggers in the park. This is art in Nashville.
FLEX IT! My Body My Temple is a living exhibit that evolves with participation. On view through January 10, 2015 at The Parthenon Museum and Centennial Park, FLEX IT! addresses obesity prevention through a series of socially engaged works designed to extend the museum experience to the park grounds on which it sits.
On Oct. 11, join Public Doors and Windows for One Mile Loop, on Oct. 12 meet up with Adrienne Outlaw for a game of Capture the Flag and on Oct. 16–30 participate in yoga sessions with Nicole Cormaci.
