Celebrating Wellness Day at Curtis - Curtis Institute of Music

Learn how the Curtis community promotes health and wellness with this dedicated bi-annual day.

At Curtis, we believe in developing the full person—which means focusing on students’ health and wellbeing is essential. That’s why, each semester, we host Wellness Day, a special Student Life event that promotes positive mental, physical, and emotional health. Held on April 24, this spring’s event included:

Rittenhouse 5K Fun Run
Financial literacy workshop
Wellness fair with resources for health and stress management
Red Cross blood drive, and
A student-led Zumba class

The day is dedicated to the memory of former student Louisa Womack.

To get a sense of this twice-yearly day, peruse our photo gallery below.

As part of wellness day, Curtis students drafted positive notes and affirmations to each other and fellow community members.
