Slow Looking Art Tour

Join us for a Slow Looking Art Tour at the Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts (RHA) with artist and guide Mags Harnett

Welcome to the Slow Art Looking Tour at the RHA Gallery (Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts)! Join us for a tour with artist and guide Mags Harnett that encourages participants to look at art for a little longer allowing us to not only see more but to familiarise ourselves with the works in greater detail. Looking at artworks more slowly can help us to form more stories, ideas, feelings and observations about the work.

Take your time to truly immerse yourself in the art and discover new perspectives. Don't rush - savour the experience with our Slow Art Looking Tour!
