We will take a look at some of the classic theorems from convex geometry, such as Helly's Theorem, Hadwiger's Theorem, Radon's Theorem, and so on, get some geometric intuition for them, and then look at their colorful generalizations. For a couple of theorems, we'll even be able to look at what Arocha et al calls their "very colorful" generalizations.
