We 
need scientists and other professionals in the STEM fields to view posters and costumes
at the Colors of Nature exhibit on Friday, July 17, from 2 to 3 p.m. in the Murie
Building lobby. Girls going into 5th, 6th and 7th grades blended the art and science
of color to create the costumes.
The College of Natural Science and Mathematics hosts the the Colors of Nature summer
academy. It is a two-week program where girls interested in art explore the physics
and biology of color. They then apply what they've learned to artistic endeavors including
their final project — designing and making costumes.
If you would like to attend, RSVP to Colors of Nature summer academy director Laura
Conner at ldconner@alaska.edu. For more information about the program, go to www.colorsofnature.org.
