The Cincinnati Parks Foundation, in partnership with The Osher Center for Integrated Health at the University of Cincinnati, Kolar Design, Moerlein Lager House, Warm Construction, Hollywood Casino and Graphic village is part of the BLINK experience at the Schmidlapp Lawn of the John G. and Phyllis W. Smale Riverfront Park.

Visit the Schmidlapp Lawn, adjacent to the healing nature of Cincinnati Parks for a mindfulness-to-movement experience that focuses on wellness and community. Just blink, and when you open your eyes, the whole world will look different.

During the day, stop by the Schmidlapp Lawn for special classes provided by the Osher Center, including yoga, tai chi and movement, with 30-minute classes offered every hour on the hour. You'll be rested and recharged, ready to explore all that BLINK has to offer.

Continue the experience by visiting Moerlein Lager House for a healthy menu powered by culinary medicine experts from the Osher Center.

You'll be rested and recharged, ready to explore all that BLINK has to offer, especially the Cincinnati Parks Foundation's outdoor disco. Dance like nobody's watching with DJ music produced by DJ Vader and dancing with Heroes Rise Dance Academy.
