THE GALLERY AT THE HOLLAND Presents “SLOW ART” DAY

“According to studies, patrons of art museums and art galleries spend an average of 8 seconds viewing an individual artwork.  Slow Art Day is a way to remedy that.”

Slow Art Day, the international grassroots movement, announces that The Gallery at the Holland in Bellefontaine, Ohio will host an event during the fourth annual global Slow Art Day on Saturday, April 28, 2012.  The event will begin at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 28, 2012.

The Gallery at the Holland joins a distinguished and growing group of more than 75 events planned around the world. Participants of the website event will enjoy a guided tour of five selected pieces of art by the event host, Karen Feltham.  Following the viewing, participants will discuss the art and their experience.  To register for this event go to http://SlowArtHolland2012.eventbrite.com.

 Other activities will also be provided at the Gallery to encourage the contemplation of the art on display.   Slow Food will also be provided by a number of vendors from the Logan County Farmer’s Market.
