Clark Art Family Artmaking Series

Print Story | Email Story

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On select Thursdays this July and August, the Clark Art Institute presents a free series of family artmaking programs inspired by the sculptures of Isamu Noguchi.

Check out the exhibition Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time, and get inspired by Noguchi's floating lanterns, mini models, and sculptures of stone and steel. Drop by anytime between 1–4 pm to make your own light sculpture. Mix and match materials such as wire, reed, and rock to create a sculpture that can hold a little light. Bring home your "landscape of time" and see how your sculpture changes in different lighting.

This series takes place on July 24 and 31 and August 7, 14, 21, and 28, from 1–4 pm on the Fernández Terrace.

Free. Rain cancels this event. For more information, visit clarkart.edu/events.

Family programs are supported by Allen & Company.

Williamstown Police Looking into Damage at Post Office

Staff Reports
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Police are looking into property damage at the U.S. Post Office on Spring Street.
 
On June 28, the Police Department received a report from a member of the Williamstown Garden Club, who was watering flowers at the Post Office and, "noticed that a granite slab had been displaced and a metal grate had been damaged," according to a police report.
 
Officer David Jennings responded to the scene and reported that it, "appeared that a vehicle or piece of machinery had struck the granite slab, causing it to shift into the metal grate and bend it," Jennings wrote.
 
By the middle of July, the damage to the grate was still apparent.
 
Williamstown Police contacted the postmaster, who said he would notify his supervisor about the damage.
 
Police Chief Michael Ziemba on Wednesday confirmed there is no closed-circuit television footage that provides details on how the damage occurred.
 
The damage is estimated to be worth about $500, according to the police report.
