Going Slow: Visual Arts x Mindfulness Tour

Slow your day down by joining us for a different kind of art gallery tour.

Visual Arts x Mindfulness Tour

Slow your day down by joining us for a different kind of art gallery tour. Much like a mindfulness exercise where you focus on your breathing, in this tour we settle our minds on the artwork on display.

We begin this session with a close observation of selected artworks from the current exhibitions, followed by an informal discussion on themes of empathy and compassion.

Community Partner: Institute for Creative Health with support from the Australian Government Catalyst Arts and Culture Fund.
