Community Room

Saturday, Sep. 21, 11am-12:30pm
Steven Weinberg's zany, thorough, and accessible guide to the wonderful world of color is simply joyous. This book is for kids and grown-ups who are interested in smushing snails, boiling avocado pits, and observing this beautiful, colorful world all around us. You think you know color? You do not. Steven will read from his amazing new book and lead us all in a hands-on art project inspired by arts education at The Met!
