- **Event Name**: Fox Valley Science Society | The Science of Paint Drying
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 04 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The materials that combine to give us great works of art have another story to tell. From the optical properties of the varnish, to the pigments that produces the vivid colors, I will lead you through a discussion on the different chemical properties of oil paintings. I spent last year watching paint dry, and I assure you, it is quite a fascinating endeavor!
