Lecture
Meditation Sessions
at The Baker Museum
Presented by the Florida Community of Mindfulness
The exhibition Ran Hwang: Becoming Again reflects the artist’s Buddhist perspective on life and meditation practice and encourages visitors to be mindfully engaged with the artwork on display. In partnership with the Florida Community of Mindfulness, The Baker Museum will host a series of one-hour meditation sessions guided by leading practitioners. These sessions, combining both sitting and walking meditations, are free to the community as part of our Artis—Uplifting initiative in the wake of Hurricane Ian. Capacity is limited. Please reserve your free ticket in advance.
This presentation is part of the exhibition Ran Hwang: Becoming Again.

The Florida Community of Mindfulness
The Florida Community of Mindfulness
The Florida Community of Mindfulness provides a “home” where people can come to learn and practice the art of meditation and mindful living. As a nurturing and supportive practice community taking inspiration from Thich Nhat Hanh, FCM offers a variety of practice opportunities to support practitioners in their aspiration to cultivate mindfulness and compassion and lead awakened lives. The FCM community was founded by Fred Eppsteiner, who received Dharma Transmission (authorization to teach in an authentic lineage descended from the Buddha) from Thich Nhat Hahn after more than four decades of deep study and practice with Buddhist masters in multiple lineages.
The Florida Community of Mindfulness meets at a Practice Center in Tampa, Florida, as well as in Naples. The FCM Naples community gathers every Sunday evening for meditation at the Yoga House beginning at 5:45pm.
