What happens here
Students and staff alike use the labyrinth when they need a mindful moment of calm.
HOW IT CAME TO BE
The class gave it, the school finished it.
01
The Need
St. Timothy's is an all-girls private residential and day school in north Baltimore, with a large emphasis on interfaith connection and community building alongside mindfulness and wellness, supporting students physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
02
The Vision
The labyrinth arrived first as a gift from the Class of 1965. The form itself carries the reasoning: for centuries a labyrinth has been a way for a person to recall what grounds or centres her soul and being, a calm way to restore strength and clarity.
03
The Transformation
Nature Sacred supported the installation in the autumn of 2015, and the space was finalized with a large bench and instructional signage on how to walk a labyrinth.
