Sometimes people feel like they just don’t have enough time during ArtPrize to slow down and enjoy the art. Slow Art at the Catholic Information Center (CIC), located on the 2nd floor of the Cathedral Square Center, gives visitors the opportunity to relax and spend time seeing art in the venue at a comfortable pace. After viewing, staff and visitors meet with a guest artist, enjoy lunch, and talk about impressions of the art.
During Slow Art, people get “inspired, not tired!”
