Slow Art Day



Slow Art Day is a global nonprofit with a simple mission: to promote the art of looking at art slowly.

Through this mission, we hope to increase the love of art and the support for museums, galleries and artists all over the world.

Our main activity each year is to organize the international Slow Art Day with volunteers in cities on every continent (yes, even Antaractica).
