For a non-science majors' course entitled Color Science, four interdisciplinary laboratory exercises are presented that involve fields outside the sciences. Two of the labs focus on art, where the students investigate the chemistry of fresco art and make their own encaustic paint. The other two labs involve theatre lighting and scene design; for these the students mix light colors, use gel filters and test paint colors with different sources of light. The fresco lab, based on a published exercise from Juniata College, and the other three labs were developed last summer with the intent of branching the science of color out to other disciplines in a meaningful way.
