Slow Art Day

Slow Art Day - April 12, 2014 - is the global all-volunteer event with a simple mission: help more people discover the joy of looking at and loving art. Why Slow? When people look slowly at a piece of art they make discoveries. The most important discovery they make is that they can see and experience art without an expert (or expertise). And that’s an exciting discovery. It unlocks passion and creativity and helps to create more art fans. At Slow Art Day, we like to say that we are in the business of making more art fans – by helping people discover their own ability to look at and love art. How Does It work? One day each year – April 12 in 2014 – people all over the world visit local museums and galleries to look at art slowly. Participants look at five works of art for 10 minutes each and then meet together over lunch to talk about their experience. That’s it. Simple by design, the goal is to focus on the art and the art of seeing. In fact, Slow Art Day works best when people look at the art on their own slowly and then meetup to discuss the experience (though some hosts decide to do the discussion right in the gallery).
