Clark Art Library to Take Summer Hiatus for Upgrades

Print Story | Email Story

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute's library will temporarily suspend operations from June 1 to Sept. 3 for the installation of a new fire protection system.

The decision to close during the summer months was based on the lower demand of the facility during the season and to ensure the library is ready for the 2013-2014 academic year.
 
The library's construction project will not impact the Clark's galleries or public programs on the campus.
 
Patrons will still be able to access the library's resources online through it's digital collections, located at clarkart.edu/library, but access to books and other materials will be unavailable. The Clark's library staff will still be accessible through email or phone at library@clarkart.edu or 413-458-0532.

Clark Art Presents Music At the Manton Concert

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute kicks off its three-part Music at the Manton Concert series for the spring season with a performance by Myriam Gendron and P.G. Six on Friday, April 26 at 7 pm. 
 
The performance takes place in the Clark's auditorium, located in the Manton Research Center.
 
According to a press release:
 
Born in Canada, Myriam Gendron sings in both English and French. After her 2014 critically-acclaimed debut album Not So Deep as a Well, on which she put Dorothy Parker's poetry to music, Myriam Gendron returns with Ma délire – Songs of Love, Lost & Found. The bilingual double album is a modern exploration of North American folk tales and traditional melodies, harnessing the immortal spirit of traditional music.
 
P.G. Six, the stage name of Pat Gubler, opens for Myriam Gendron. A prominent figure in the Northeast folk music scene since the late 1990s, Gubler's latest record, Murmurs and Whispers, resonates with a compelling influence of UK psychedelic folk.
 
Tickets $10 ($8 members, $7 students, $5 children 15 and under). Accessible seats available; for information, call 413 458 0524. Advance registration encouraged. For more information and to register, visit clarkart.edu/events.
 
This performance is presented in collaboration with Belltower Records, North Adams, Massachusetts.
