Every first and third Thursday of the month, slow down and examine a single work of art for 30 screen-free minutes guided by museum staff, community members, and visiting artists.

For this Art Break, Maya Falkenberg, Mirken Coordinator of Campus and Community Collaboration, educator, and community organizer will facilitate a conversation around New Suns by Claire Pentecost, featured in the exhibition By Design: The Worlds of Betsy James Wyeth.

Art Break programs are grounded in the practice of slow looking—an educational approach that invites you to give patient, immersive attention to a work of art to discover personal connections and meaning. Join us in the Colby College Museum of Art galleries throughout the academic year.
