Meet in Great Hall

Join Jason Bemis, Art and Science Lecturer at the American Information Center for Color and Environment, and an expert on the profound effects of light and color on human psychology and emotions. Bemis will explore how our built environments influence mood, behavior, and well-being, shedding light on the intersection of neuroscience, design, and architecture. Understanding the psychological impact of color and lighting provides deeper insight into how spaces can enhance or diminish our sense of comfort, focus, and emotional balance.

Classroom #2

Prepare yourself for a whole new way of looking at art! The Norton welcomes back the wildly popular Sick Puppies Comedy team from Doghouse Theater to do improv based on artwork in the Collection. We provide the artwork, and they will create humorous stories and scenes on the spot without any script or plans.

Doghouse Theater is the home of Sick Puppies Comedy, who have served the Boca/Delray area for nearly a decade. Sick Puppies has several all-star teams, performing the widest array of improv around; from Chicago-style to improvised musicals, there is a show for everyone. Doghouse Theater also provides improv classes, as well as sketch writing, standup comedy, and more. There are shows every Friday and Saturday night in the Historic District of Delray just north of Atlantic.
