Glasgow Colour Studies Group
Glasgow Colour Studies Group provides a multidisciplinary forum for people interested in any aspect of the study of colour. Membership is principally drawn from universities, colleges, museums and art galleries in the Glasgow area. Meetings with a variety of speakers and formats are held approximately four times a year, followed by socializing.
