Join us for a midday break as we spend 30 minutes with one work of art. We&#8217;ll delve into the slow looking process—an approach that allows for learning and discovery through extended observation time. Kris Bergquist, Head of Community Programs, will introduce and guide the conversation in Gallery H9, Hawks Pavilion.
