International Day of Strengths — Sunday, December 6, 2026Bess Dodson Walt Branch Library, 6701 South 14th Street, Lincoln. Doors at 1:00 pm, sessions until 7:00 pm. Free and open to everyone.
Strengths psychology was born in Nebraska, and once a year Lincoln spends an afternoon on the thing it started: noticing what people are genuinely good at, naming it out loud, and turning it toward kindness.
Eleven half-hour sessions, come for one or stay for all: kindness as a triple rainbow, a sound bath, strengths spotting, the dialogics of pausing and playing, curiosity, a museum at play and in the groove, a strengths-based imagination, the creativity of the art spirit, dance, strengths as footings for the future, and a closing conversation where we read the Kindness Sprint together — nine weeks of folded kindness from across the city, strung and hung in the Constellation Studios window.
There is a kind of wonder that comes from watching a person act from the best of who they are. That is what the afternoon is built around.
Every session is yours to join or to skip. Bring someone who has never been told what they're good at.
