Event Details

Do you know the history of the colors in your world? All the tints, hues, dyes, and shades of the colors around you can be traced back to a specific point in history – and the stories they tell are amazing! Which came first – the fruit orange or the color orange? Was Lincoln Green named after Mary Lincoln? This Illustrated Lecture will share with you the powerful – and colorful! – history of color. Laura Keyes will be delighting us with her colorful presentation.
