Print Story | Email Story
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute continues its First Sunday Free series on Sunday, Nov. 2. 
 
In celebration of Laura Ellen Bacon's willow sculpture Gathering My Thoughts, part of the outdoor sculpture exhibition Ground/work 2025, the November First Sunday Free's theme is "Twisting Trees." 
 
Enjoy free museum admission from 10 a.m.–5 p.m. and take part in free special activities from 1–4 p.m.
 
According to a press release, Bacon creates sculptures from natural materials that organically blend in with the landscape. 
 
From 1–4 p.m., enjoy hands-on activities making artworks with natural materials. At 2 p.m., take a Clark educator-led woodland walk and close look at Bacon's twisting trees.
 
Each First Sunday Free, visitors are welcome to make a mini sculpture inspired by one of the six sculptures in the exhibition and add it to the Clark's growing Ground/work 2025-inspired mural.
 
Admission and activities are free. For accessibility questions, call 413 458 0524.
 
Family programs are supported by Allen & Company.

Letter: Williamstown Garden Club Seeks Members

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

Have you enjoyed the seasonal, colorful flowers around Williamstown? Did you know these efforts are the work of Williamstown Garden Club (WGC) members?

These include the containers at town intersections, the post office, Town Hall, Milne Library, Field Park, and the bike path.

Are you eager to see the green boxes with cascading flowers return to Walley bridge, also the work of the WGC? The club needs to increase its membership to assist with these efforts, which are enjoyed by so many — both residents and those just passing through town.

Membership is open to all and offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to the community, as well as enjoy educational programs and garden tours. Learn more at williamstowngardenclub.org.
