INFORMATION ABOUT THE COLOUR GROUP:
its officers and its affiliations
The Colour Group, founded in 1940, is an interdisciplinary society that draws together those concerned with different aspects of colour - its measurement, reproduction and perception. Monthly meetings are held, mostly in London, usually from October to May and provide a unique forum for the exchange of information and contacts. Our current programme is available on this site but to find out more about the Group's activities, you should become a member of the Group, and receive our Newsletter. This carries notices of meetings, reports of papers given at meetings, as well as news of other developments in the world of colour. The Committee welcomes new applications for membership . The annual subscription is £20.00 pounds sterling.
Although we welcome members from other countries, if you do not live in Great Britain you might find it useful to join the corresponding group in your own country. The Colour Group is a member of the AIC (International Association of Colour), and you may find the address of an organisation nearer home.
The Group has no permanent headquarters or staff and is entirely a voluntary
(non-commercial) organization. It is a Registered Charity (No.
1047548). The registered address under the Companies Act is:
Applied Vision Research Centre
Tait Building
City University
Northampton Square
London, EC1V 0HB

Affiliations
The Colour Group enjoys relations with many other organisations - there are links to these on our Web Links Page - but our major international link is with the International Colour Association (Internationale Vereinigung für die Farbe or Association Internationale de la Couleur) know universally as the AIC. See last report from the AICNewsletter concerning the Group.
The Colour Group is organising on behalf of the AIC the 12th International AIC Congress at the SAGE in Gateshead/Newcastle on 8 - 13 July 2013. This will be a prestigeous event and one not to miss.
