WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass.—This summer, the Clark Art Institute presents a free series of interactive Friday discussions, Art in Conversation.

A Clark educator leads an interactive exploration of what makes a sculpture a sculpture, examining the artwork of sculptor Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) in dialogue with more traditional sculpture from the Clark's permanent collection. Discussions take place at 1 pm on July 25 and August 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29, and are free with gallery admission.

Capacity is limited. Pick up a ticket at the Clark Center admissions desk, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Meet in the Museum Pavilion. For more information, visit clarkart.edu/events.

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.
