About this Event

Slow down. Look closely. Allow yourself time to make discoveries and form personal connections with works from the Museum’s Collection. Guided by a museum educator, this is an opportunity to gather, carefully consider and discuss works together. Each forty-five-minute session focuses on a single work of art or explores a connection between multiple works.

This month look at Betty Zakoian's painting Sunrise on a Water Scene (1959), currently on view in Catalyst: Im/migration and Self-taught Art in Chicago.

Slow Look is free with Museum admission. Pre-registration is required.
