Slow Art Day is April 5th, 2025, and the Yellowstone Art Museum looks forward to welcoming museum goers for a day of special programming as one of the 146 global host venues.Since its inception in 2008, Slow Art Day has encouraged museum and gallery visitors to engage with a few artworks at a deliberate pace. Most visitors typically engage with a piece for less than thirty seconds while visiting a museum. By slowing down, more personal connections can be made with a work of art, and it can encourage better conversations surrounding the work.
To celebrate this year’s event, the YAM is providing a full day of hosted events, with each activity supporting Slow Art Day’s mission. The museum will display a set of featured works, and multiple artists and community groups will encourage and guide visitors to enjoy the art unhurriedly.
9 AM – 12 PM The Copyists
Billings area artists, the Copyists, will paint selected works by Gennie DeWeese in the first floor galleries.
9:30 – 11 AM Free Yoga
The day begins with a special version of yoga at the museum, including a slow look at art in the YAM’s Murdock Gallery.
