WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Saturday, Aug. 9, at 11 am, the Clark Art Institute celebrates the opening of its newest exhibition "Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time" with a free lecture. 
 
The Isamu Noguchi Museum Foundation and Garden Museum's Matthew Kirsch, curator and director of research, and Kate Wiener, curator, introduce the exhibition. The lecture takes place in the Clark's auditorium, located in the Manton Research Center.
 
According to a press release:
 
Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time explores Noguchi's fluid relationship with time—his ability to move between past, present, and future in his art. Through sculpture, design, and public works, Noguchi engaged with geologic time, material life cycles, and memory. Kirsch and Wiener provide insight into how Noguchi's non-linear approach shaped his work, from ancient influences to futuristic visions, offering a deeper understanding of his search for belonging beyond temporal constraints.
 
Free. Accessible seats available; for information call 413 458 0524.
 
"Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time" is co-organized by the Clark Art Institute and The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum, and curated by the Museum's Curator and Director of Research Matthew Kirsch and Curator Kate Wiener.
 
Support for this exhibition is provided by Cynthia and Ron Beck.

Performance Team Revived at Christmas Brook Figure Skating Club

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff

The Blitz regularly performs at women's college hockey games at MCLA And Williams College.
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Last year, the Christmas Brook Figure Skating Club's Blitz spent the winter sharpening its skills and supporting women's hockey in North County.
 
This year, they've decided to help some men, as well.
 
The Blitz, an 11-member company of skaters aged 7 through 16, have been invited to perform during intermission of a Springfield Thunderbirds minor league men's hockey game at the Mass Mutual Center.
 
The Dec. 30 performance will come during a season that again will include shows at women's college hockey games at the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts in North Adams and Williams College.
 
The club's production team was a staple of the Bay State Figure Skating Show at the annual Bay State Games and the local club's own year-end show but took a hiatus after the COVID-19 pandemic, Michela Juras said.
 
"Coach Nikki [Benson] and I brought it back with a twist: hockey games," Juras said.
 
"I skated on a team when I was younger, and we practiced weekly. I just wanted to provide more opportunities to build their confidence. It helps build leadership, teamwork, sportsmanship, you name it."
