In fact\, many of the things we see as blue have no blue pigments in them at all. Why\, then\, do we perceive them as blue and how does science make that possible?  Of course\, some things are colored by pigments — we will explore the science of those colors as well. \nJoin us for this fascinating conversation at the Cantor Art Gallery with Class Deans and Professors Sarah Petty (Chemistry) and Rob Bellin (Biology) about the science of color. \nFree entry and blue-colored snacks provided! \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n\n \n \n \n \n \n October 22\, 2024\n4:00 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Free Entry\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nIris & B.
