Inspired by the Slow Art Movement, this program invites participants to engage deeply with photographs from the Tampa Museum of Art's exhibition "Ancient Athens: Birthplace of Democracy."
In a world that often moves too quickly, Slow Looking encourages us to pause, observe, and discuss art in a meaningful way. Together, we will explore images of ancient Athenian sculptures, pottery, and artifacts, uncovering hidden details, discussing historical context, and sharing personal interpretations. No prior art knowledge required! Art enthusiasts, history lovers, curious minds, and anyone who enjoys thoughtful conversation is welcome.
Recommended for Adults. Registration Required.
Project funding provided by the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners.

The Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library opened February 14, 2001 to serve the Carrollwood and Northdale communities in northern Hillsborough County. A 10,000 square foot expansion of the original 25,000 square foot building was completed in February 2014 and features:
The library houses a comprehensive circulating collection in multiple formats and a wide variety of programs and services. In addition to the two large community rooms and story time room, four smaller meeting rooms are available for programs, meetings, quiet study and literacy tutoring. A public makerspace, The Hive, offers unique tools, activities and events for hands-on learning. A drive-thru window offers convenient checkout and return of library materials to customers on the go.
