News from Adventures & Outings: Explore the Color of Green

On Monday April 12th, in partnership with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, BORP’s Adventures & Outings Program will host an exploration of the color green.

We respond emotionally to colors. Green is an ambiguous color: a symbol of life, luck, and hope on the one hand, and a symbol of disorder, poison, the devil and all his creatures on the other. Landscapes are usually full of green as well. This tour will be a chance to get to know all green’s aspects and flavors.

James Abbott McNeill Whistler, The Gold Scab: Eruption in Frilthy Lucre (The Creditor), 1879, oil on Canvas.

The tour takes place on April 12 from 10:30am to 12pm.

Call Lori at 510-843-4398 for more information (please call after 10am).

Space is limited.
