This program is sold out, and registration is closed.How do we learn to listen more deeply—to works of art, to the spaces around us, and to our own thoughts? Join Denver artist, DJ, and cultural organizer Matthew Brown (Fancy Matthew) for a special edition of Fine Motor Skills, his contemplative workshop exploring the creative possibilities of focused attention.
Inspired by the immersive listening practices at the heart of Still in Sound, participants will gather in the galleries for a quiet, screen-free, no-talking experience of writing, drawing, sketching, or journaling. Accompanied by a live all-vinyl soundtrack, Fine Motor Skills explores what Brown calls “slow music”—moving fluidly between ambient soundscapes, low-BPM rhythms, and other spacious, unhurried forms of listening that encourage sustained attention without fading into the background. As you slow down to observe closely and engage in analog creative practice, you’ll be invited to experience how writing and drawing by hand can open different ways of thinking, revealing new possibilities for encountering art, sound, and yourself.
The program costs $15 for adults, $13 for seniors, and is free for CSM members. Program costs include Museum admission for the day. Space is limited, and advance registration is required to attend in person at the Clyfford Still Museum.
