What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange and red? 1.Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. 2. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

3. A yellow room makes most people more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one. And a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. 4. A black bridge over the Thames River near London, used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀) than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

5. it is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.

A. On the other hand, black is depressing.

B. They tell us, among those facts, that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up—we are born with our preference.

C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.

D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.

E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.

F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.

G. Colors do influence our moods. There is no doubt about it.

Theater Design Workshop

In theater design, it is the set designer's job to envision the scenery, furniture, and props that create the environment for the action to take place and the play to unfold. In this hands-on program led by architects from BSA Space, students learn about how the setting influences the action and the mood; and then use art, mathematics, and language arts skills to create their own three-dimensional model as a setting for their own story.

This program will run for five weeks and has limited seating. To reserve a spot, please contact the West Roxbury Branch at 617. 325. 3147. This program is for children ages 6-9.
