About Slow Art Day

Slow Art Day is a one-day event that facilitates, celebrates, and slows down the activity of viewing art. Slow Art Day takes place in art organizations around the globe that invite gallery and museum visitors to look slowly at works of art and provide opportunity to discuss their experience among peers.
