Free, family-friendly day of hands-on activities exploring the connections between art, science and innovation.
CSU Spur is hosting The Science of Art on Saturday, Nov. 14, from 10 AM to 2 PM. It's the latest installment of 2nd Saturday at CSU Spur, a recurring series that runs on the second Saturday of every month with a new theme each time. The whole series is built around the creative connections between art, science and innovation, and this edition takes that a step further by letting you actually work with those ideas rather than just look at them.
The Science of Art is set up as a day of hands-on activities. You'll be experimenting with color, light, sound and design, and there will be community partners on hand who work across these disciplines. It's the kind of thing where you can spend a few hours moving from one station to the next, trying your hand at different things, and chatting with the people who spend their professional lives bridging the gap between the studio and the lab. If you've ever wondered how a scientific principle becomes a visual effect or how sound can be treated like a physical material, this is a good place to see it in action.

Because it's part of the 2nd Saturday series, it's designed as a free, family-friendly gathering, so it works as a solo outing or as something to bring the kids along for. The series is presented by Canvas Credit Union. It runs from 10 AM to 2 PM at CSU Spur in Denver, and admission is free.
