Every First Thursday at 6pm for Riverside ArtsWalk, let UCR ARTS lead you on a virtual Slow Art Walk through artworks from the exhibitions and collections at California Museum of Photography and Culver Center of the Arts. What does that mean? Slow down, look closely at art, and talk about the experience with others.

Long before our favorite cat memes on social media, animals captured the imagination of countless photographers.  In this program, UCR ARTS and Gluck Student Fellow Cambra Sklarz will take participants on a slow-looking tour of a selection of the California Museum of Photography’s photographs of our fabulous, photogenic, and feral friends in the animal world.  From birds to bears, we’ll think about how animals enliven the works and add meaning to images of the world around us.  In this virtual discussion, human participation is encouraged; pets are welcome, too.
