Current & Past Clients

  • “Looking at art through the lens of compassion was both beautiful and inspiring. You made the experience so engaging—you led us on a journey of art appreciation that was both universal and personal.  I am excited to continue partnering with you and am looking forward to offering your new tours to our participants!”

    —Katherine Bodger, Coordinator – Trips, Tours & Special Events, MPLS Community Education

  • “Our team had a phenomenal experience and we all got so much out of the tour.  Thank you so much for guiding us through @artsmia in an effort to tune in and tune up our compassion.  I still think about this tour a ton.”

    —Sara Frailich, Co-founder & CEO, Design Research Collective

  • “I liked the exercise of imagining what might be happening for the person in the art. Also, the information of how to get past empathy to actual compassion and release the buildup of stress, was extremely healing for me since I see social needs daily that I feel helpless to solve.”

    —Anonymous, Social Worker & Youmanity Tour Participant

  • “The tour made me realize that I chose to work with animals because I’m uncomfortable relating with humans. The tour helped me begin to really look at this.  I felt a deeper compassion for others (in the group, in our leader and others in general).  I felt my heart break open and grow.”

    —Anonymous, Retired Veteran & Youmanity Tour Participant
