Wexner Professional Leadership Programs Alumni Institute 2025

A hands-on art workshop using visual tools to process the events in Israel post-October 7. When lost, humans have looked to the sky, to the sea, to the earth to map our journeys. Maps enable us to locate ourselves, to ground us, literally, and to give ourselves a stable compass to move forward. Maps encompass symbols of places real and imagined, concrete and metaphoric, which we can use to narrate the stories of our journeys and weave together threads of experience and emotions which, without a narrative, can be overwhelming and isolating. No prior art experience is necessary.

Discover how goal planning can be a spiritual practice through Jewish teachings on intentionality and mindfulness. Learn to set meaningful short- and long-term goals using planner tools while reflecting on personal growth. In group discussions and personal reflection, we’ll learn new techniques to set short-term and long-term goals that resonate with your passions. This session will provide practical tools to transform your vision into reality, all with a touch of Jewish wisdom. Bring your notebook and an open mind!
