Chemical Heritage Foundation
Grand Opening Celebration
Time: 5:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Place: Chemical Heritage Foundation
"Marvels and Ciphers" opens the door to reactions—both chemical and personal. For centuries, with means ranging from alchemy to quantum-enabled technologies, scientists have struggled to understand the material world—with varying degrees of success. Public responses to scientific debate and discovery are even more varied. A single breakthrough can elicit fascination and hope as well as anxiety and fear. With paintings, photographs, books, and cartoons, "Marvels and Ciphers" explores the inevitable social complexity of scientific pursuits.
Marjorie Gapp, CHF’s curator of art and images, will present an in-depth look at "Marvels and Ciphers" at 6:30 p.m. on March 5.
