Sharing our sincere appreciation for teachers across Colorado  and beyond

The closure of schools this spring has created an  unprecedented  challenge for teachers  to overcome.  Teachers were faced with daunting questions:  How do we teach from afar? How do we connect with our students when we cannot connect? How do we ensure students know we care?  We have seen teachers not only  rise to the challenge, but truly innovate during this time of need.

The DAM invites you to summon your inner turtle for our inaugural Slow Art Day, an international event with the simple mission to help more people discover for themselves the joy of looking at and loving art. On April 14, people all over the world will visit museums and galleries to look at art slowly, lingering with five works of art for 10 minutes each and then joining back up for a conversation about the experience.
