"Slow looking" has long been a strategy used by museum educators to help visitors more deeply appreciate objects on view. In celebration of Slow Art Day, join MAD educators in a variety of programs that encourage a more memorable, multisensory experience that fosters discovery and the joy of looking at and loving art. Visitors are invited to join in performative movement-based activities and group discussions. Open to visitors of all ages and backgrounds. No reservations required.
Please review our health and safety protocols before you arrive. MAD strongly recommends all visitors six months and older are vaccinated against Covid-19 and visitors ages two and up wear face coverings, even if vaccinated. Thank you for your cooperation.
