WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute continues its First Sunday Free series on Sunday, Dec. 7. 
 
In celebration of Hugh Hayden's sculpture, the End, December's First Sunday Free theme is "Beasts and Bones." 
 
Enjoy free museum admission from 10 am–5 pm and take part in free special activities from 1–4 pm.
 
Hayden's massive artwork evokes the ribcage of a long-gone giant. From 1–4 pm, visitors can draw "x-rays" and sketch skeletons, watch a recording of the artist discussing his artwork, and view the outdoor sculpture up close, guided by our activity card.
 
A special Print Room Pop-Up featuring prints, drawings, and photographs related to the theme will be on view in the Manton Study Center for Works on Paper from 1–3 pm.
 
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.

Library Board Only Race in Williamstown Election

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Voters in May will have one contested election on the ballot.
 
Four candidates have had their nomination papers certified for two available three-year seats on the Milne Public Library Board of Trustees in a race that voters will sort out when they go to the polls on Tuesday, May 12.
 
Janet Curran, Martin Mitsoff, Kathleen Schultze and Michael Sussman — all potential newcomers to the seven-person board — have been certified as candidates for the two open seats on the library's governing body.
 
Those two positions along with five other local government posts will be on the ballot for the annual town election.
 
For the Select Board, only incumbents Stephanie Boyd and Shana Dixon submitted papers to be returned to their three-year seats.
 
A third seat on the five-person board also is on the ballot. Newcomer Nathaniel Budington submitted papers to run for the final year on an unexpired term vacated by Jeffrey Johnson.
 
Two other candidates are running unopposed to retain their seats after Tuesday's deadline to submit nomination papers expired. Stephen Dew is running for another five-year seat on the Housing Authority, and Roger Lawrence is running for another five years on the Planning Board.
