Citywide Slow Art Day in France

This year, Argentan, France, home of two great 20th century artists, Fernand Léger and André Mare, will be hosting three Slow Art Day events on April 5, 2025.

The three venues participating include the Musée Fernand Léger André Mare, the library network Réseau des Médiathèques Terres d’Argentan, and the digital museum Micro-Folie Mobile.

Citywide events have been an increasingly important part of Slow Art Day.

Small towns like Bloomington, Illinois, and larger cities like Antwerp, Belgium and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania have been hosting multi-venue Slow Art Day celebrations.

We are glad to welcome this Norman town to our movement focused on helping people learn how to slow down, look at, and love art.
