Slow art day in Europos Parkas

On Saturday, April 4th, 2020, we invite you to visit the Europos Parkas museum and to experience the art pieces created by world-know artists s l o w l y.

Each one of us can have unique and memorable art experience. Europos Parkas, Open-Air Museum of the Centre of Europe, joins the international initiative “slow art day” when people all over the world visit museums and galleries to look at the art pieces s l o w l y.

All those who come to the museum will be invited to observe 5 sculptures for 10 minutes each, with the goal to focus on the artwork and on the "seeing" itself. After these 50 minutes, the participants will gather for a cup of coffee or tea and share their experiences and discoveries.

In 2020 Europos Parkas museum implements the project of developing modern solutions based on the use of innovative technologies to present museum's exhibition with the aim to increase dissemination, promote art knowledge, but also to ensure that the art experience will be deep, meaningful and touching instead of fast and superficial. Our aim is to promote the quality relationship between art and its observer. It is an incentive to stop, to take a breath, to feel the "here and now" moment, to the joy of exploring art, nature, landscape, moments of mindfulness.

The project “Attentive Journey through Europos Parkas” is partly financed by the Lithuanian Council for Culture.
