Event

International Slow Art Day

Experience the joy of art by slowing down and taking time to look closely with guided activities. Join staff and docents as they lead viewing of and conversations about Japanese screens. Or learn to make origami with an art-making workshop.

Prefer to explore at your own pace? Pick up a slow-looking guide to sketch, write, and connect with works of art of your choice.
