Beyond Benign, "a non-profit organization that promotes sustainable science in order to create an environmentally, socially and economically prosperous world," is sponsoring an open house, featuring the work of visual artists, this coming Thurs, Nov 5, 2009. From the website:

"Beyond Benign was created by Dr. John Warner, a founder of the field of Green Chemistry, to provide an approach and means for scientists, particularly those involved in green chemistry and sustainable science, to reach out to the public. Guided by the belief that all scientists should be able to explain their research in a simple and meaningful manner to people from all backgrounds and of all ages, John incorporated community outreach into his students' academic experience as a requirement early in his tenure at the University of Massachusetts. His vision is to increase public awareness and understanding of science in general and specifically of the relationships between chemistry, human health and the environment."

The exhibition features the work of Betty Busby, Nancy Crasco, Megan Cronin, Tony Cruz,  Carlos Estevez,  Vico Fabbris, Bob Harmon, Brian Hart, Eliza Stamps, and students from the Innovation Academy Charter School.
