Is slow the new fast? Imagine a museum where you can breathe and truly appreciate the art, not just race through a checklist of exhibits. That's the idea behind the hot new trend of "slow museums." Slow museums are all about quality over quantity. They showcase fewer collections but invest more time and energy into making each one unforgettable. It's not just about the paintings (though those are still awesome!). Slow museums are also upping the game on events and workshops. Imagine chatting with the artist, learning a new skill, or participating in discussions about the art. With the rise of slow museums, we gotta wonder: is less truly more for museums? Could this be the key to a deeper connection with art and culture? Would you rather have a curated, in-depth experience or the variety of a traditional museum? 👇 #MuseumExperience #ArtAndCulture #CultureShift

From this week’s Museum Human by Robert J. Weisberg Is the Fall of the Museum Workplace a Matter of Time?  It might be a worthwhile exercise for us to ask, what if every major task of a museum were given twice as long to happen? Could other kinds of work—longer-term projects, or the classic "things that never get done" like professional learning and development or mentoring and so on—now take place? https://lnkd.in/gEuY9ZZ2

Employee friendly, collaborative effort, environmentally sustainable, appropriately aligned to tourist seasons, immersive local community engagement - the slow-museum model seems to have it all; but not without its challenges! With concerns of waitlisting in terms of booking exhibitions or artwork donations, artists' resentments, job cuts etc., I really like how the article highlights that the model still paves way for in-depth conversations and consciousness art consumption. As a fan of slow living and relishing art, slowly and meaningfully, a yay from me!
