CELEBRATE SLOW ART DAY AT THE CITY MUSEUM ON APRIL 11TH
WHAT IS SLOW ART DAY? Slow Art Day is a global annual event celebrating art. On Slow Art Day, participating museums invite visitors to look slowly at a piece of art for ~5 minutes and then the museum host facilitates a discussion about the experience.
WHAT IS HAPPENING AT THE CITY MUSEUM ON SLOW ART DAY? The City Museum’s exhibition entitled Slow Beauty was inspired in part by Slow Art Day and the book All the Beauty in the World by Patrick Bringley. This exhibition is composed of six pieces of art curated by museum staff. The pieces on display include artwork by contemporary Juneau artists and iconic Alaska painters. Participants will view one of the pieces in this exhibition and City Museum Curator of Collections and Exhibitions, Dara Lohnes-Davies, will facilitate a discussion.
WHEN IS THE SLOW LOOKING EVENT? There will be 2 sessions on Saturday, April 11th. The first begins at 11:00 a.m. and the second at 12: p.m.
DO I NEED TO SIGN UP? Yes! Space is limited to 6 participants for each session and pre-registration is required.
