Chemistry of Art

Do you like to create art? So did the many humans who came before you millions of years ago. We will explore how chemistry influenced humans’ art over millions of years. Innovations helped human art evolve from simple drawings done by cavemen to masterpieces that display complex chemical engineering concepts. We will follow in the footsteps of famous chemists by conducting hands-on experiments involving acids and bases, purification, and much more. We will mix our own paint and use it the same way it was used in different periods in history. By combining art and chemistry, we will experience the science behind beauty and creativity.

Campers will be using MUNI to visit the DeYoung Museum
