WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Saturday, Jan. 31 at 6 pm, the Clark Art Institute presents an original musical performance by Luke Fischbeck inspired by special exhibition Raffaella della Olga: Typescripts.

The performance takes place in the Manton Research Center auditorium.

Raffaella della Olga considers her practice of typewriter art in musical terms, with the machine itself as an instrument and the resulting works as graphic scores. In this program, Williams College lecturer Luke Fischbeck, of the collaborative sound art group lucky dragons, performs two works inspired by della Olga’s practice: a solo piano composition by Parisian composer Alexandra Grimal, Typewriter #2, for Piano, and his own live mix of an electronic sound piece based on recordings made on the Clark campus.

Raffaella della Olga:Typescripts is on view through May 31, 2026 in the Eugene V. Thaw Gallery for Works on Paper in the Manton Research Center.

Tickets $10 ($8 members, $7 college students, $5 children 17 and under). Accessible seats available; for information, call 413 458 0524. For tickets, visit events.clarkart.edu.

No Contested Town Races Shaping Up in Williamstown

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — With two weeks left to gather signatures on nomination papers, there are no contested elections shaping up for the May 12 town election.

And there is one post for which no one has expressed an interest in serving.

Two current members of the Select Board have pulled nomination papers to run for seats on the body, the town clerk reported on Tuesday morning.

Stephanie Boyd, who is concluding her first three-year term on the five-person body, has taken out nomination papers.

Shana Dixon, who was elected last May to fill the final year of an unexpired term, is running for a full three-year term.

The board currently has four members after it chose not to appoint a replacement for Jeffrey Johnson last year. The final year of his unexpired term will be determined by voters this spring. So far, the only resident to pull papers for that post is Nate Budington, who serves on the Historical Commission and is that body's representative on the Community Preservation Committee.

None of the three potential candidates for the Select Board have returned papers with the required 30 signatures to get a spot on the May ballot.
