Clark Art Presents First Sunday Free: Lights, Camera Landscape

Print Story | Email Story
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute First Sunday Free series continues on Sunday, Dec. 1 from 1 to 4 pm. 
 
December's theme is "Lights, Camera, Landscape!"
 
According to a press release:
 
Contemporary artist Abelardo Morell engages with history, place, and nature in his colorful images, reflecting Claude Monet and John Constable's influence on him. Artists often draw inspiration from each other's work, and we do, too! Taking inspiration from the layers in Morell's works, experiment with creating transparent drawings that can overlap in surprising ways. Then, from the ground up, document place and perspective through a collaborative photo wall.
 
Be sure to pick up a gallery guide and explore the connections between Morell's photographs and Monet and Constable's paintings. Additionally, check out the special selection of photographs from the Clark's collection at the Print Room Pop-Up installation on view from 11 am–1 pm at the Manton Study Center for Works on Paper.
 
Free admission all day. Special activities in the Michael Conforti Pavilion from 1 to 4 pm. 
 
Family programs are supported by Allen & Company.

Six Running for Four Seats on Mount Greylock School Committee

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Voters will have choices for all four Mount Greylock School Committee seats on the Nov. 3 ballot.
 
Three Lanesborough residents, including one incumbent, have submitted signed nomination papers for the two seats up for grabs for residents of the town.
 
In Williamstown, both incumbents and one newcomer have submitted papers for two of that town's four seats on the four-member committee.
 
Curtis Elfenbein returned papers to Lanesborough Town Hall by Tuesday's deadline to run for a four-year second term on the committee. He first joined the body in 2020 when he was chosen to fill the last two years of an unexpired term, and he was elected in his own right two years later.
 
He is joined on the ballot by newcomers Melissa Zuroff and Jodi Szczepaniak-Locke.
 
All three prospective Lanesborough candidates' nomination papers will be certified when Town Clerk Ruth Knysh returns from vacation on Aug. 3.
 
In Williamstown, all three candidates' nomination papers have been certified by Town Clerk Nicole Beverly.
