Join UF faculty, students and local community collaborators across multiple fields to explore how knowledge, creativity and wellness emerge through nature and the body. The symposium will highlight embodied leadership in the age of hybrid intelligences, dance based scientific inquiry, creative wellness mapping, bookmaking as self-expression, walking and place based literary practices, labyrinth making and cultural memory work. It will also include a research mixer as an interactive space for attendees to share works-in-progress, exchange ideas and connect across disciplines.
