International Colour Day

Our world is saturated in color. From pastel hues to neon brights, color is one of the most influential phenomena in our lives. I think that is something to be celebrated and I’m not alone. On March 21st all around the world color lovers are taking part in International Colour Day.


Members of the International Colour Association, which is composed of national associations and members representing more than 30 countries, set March 21st as International Colour Day. The group agreed to the date because it “is the “equinox”. Around the equinox, the night and day are approximately equally long, symbolically relating to the complementary nature of light and darkness, light and shadow expressed in all human cultures.” (via Wikipedia)
The logo has equal halves one of rainbow colors and the other black representing the light and darkness, day and night relating to the equinox. The two circles are also symbolic of the form of an eye.

How will you celebrate?
