Slow Art Day

Join us at the Missoula Art Museum on Saturday, April 5, 2025, for Slow Art Day, an international event celebrating the power of slow looking. In partnership with local Missoula furniture stores—Missoula Used Furniture, Smithblack Furniture, Madison Creek Furnishing, and At Piece Furniture—we are creating thoughtfully curated vignettes around key artworks, inviting visitors to sit, reflect, and deeply engage with the pieces. Guests will be encouraged to observe five selected artworks, spending 5–10 minutes with each to take in its details, emotions, and stories. Comfortable seating, provided by our partners, will be placed throughout the galleries to foster a relaxed and immersive experience. This event is free and open to all, whether you’re a seasoned art lover or a first-time visitor looking to discover the transformative power of slowing down. Drop in anytime between 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM, sign in at the museum, and receive a guide to the selected artworks. We look forward to welcoming you to this unique and mindful art experience at the Missoula Art Museum.
