WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Tuesday, July 22, the Clark Art Institute presents a "Morning of Self-Care" with activities designed to engage and relax.

From 9:30 am to 10:30 am, local yoga instructor Mary Edgerton leads free all-levels yoga sessions inspired by the sights and sounds of the Clark's natural landscape on the Reflecting Pool lawn. Continue a morning of self-care and introspection indoors when the museum opens at 10 am. Visitors can pick up a Pause and Reflect Guide at the Clark Center admissions desk and embark on a contemplative engagement with art in the galleries, alone or with a loved one.

Yoga takes place by the Reflecting Pool and is free. Remember to bring a mat.

At 11 am, Reflections: Introspective Gallery Talk offers a guided gallery experience in which visitors, led by a Clark educator, work together to explore a singular work of art in the Clark's permanent collection.

Reflections gallery talks meet in the Museum Pavilion and are free with gallery admission; advance registration is required. For more information, visit clarkart.edu/events.

St. Stan's Students Spread Holiday Cheer at Williamstown Commons

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Students from St. Stanislaus Kostka School in Adams brought the holiday spirit to Williamstown Commons on Thursday, delivering handmade Christmas cards and leading residents in a community caroling session.

"It honestly means the world to us because it means the world to them," said nursing home Administrator Alex Fox on Thursday morning. "This made their days. This could have even made their weeks. It could have made their Christmas, seeing the children and interacting with the community."

Teacher Kate Mendonca said this is the first year her class has visited the facility, noting that the initiative was driven entirely by the students.

"This came from the kids. They said they wanted to create something and give back," Mendonca said. "We want our students involved in the community instead of just reading from a religion book."

Preparation for the event began in early December, with students crafting bells to accompany their singing. The handmade cards were completed last week.

"It's important for them to know that it's not just about them during Christmas," Mendonca said. "It's about everyone, for sure. I hope that they know they really helped a lot of people today and hopefully it brought joy to the residents here."
