Rather than rushing from artwork to artwork, participants are introduced to three selected artworks and encouraged to sit, pause, observe and allow the work to reveal itself, following where it leads their thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the session, we will introduce simple pedagogy for engaging with art through mindful observation and reflection. Following the session, enjoy tea and coffee with the other participants&nbsp;and share what you noticed, discovered and experienced together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Event Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Thursday 22 October<br><strong>Thursday 19 November<\/strong><br><strong>12pm &#8211; 1pm<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Free event, open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/events.humanitix.com\/the-art-of-slow-looking-radical-futures\">Register here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Photography<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This event may be photographed and\/or videoed and images may occasionally be used for promotional and marketing purposes, including social media.
