Slow Art Day | Saturday, April 11, 2026 | 10 AM - 4 PM
Slow Art Day is celebrated by venues around the world on the same day each year, inviting visitors to explore a local museum or gallery and view a small number of works on their own, or join our docents for a deeper look at some of our special works. The goal is to encourage people to look at art more patiently, and appreciate it more deeply.
Special spotlight tours will be offered at 11 am, 12 pm, 1 pm, and 2 pm, showcasing selected works from our permanent collection—this is a Free event included with General Admission.
