WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Saturday, March 14 at 11 am, the Clark Art Institute celebrates the opening of its latest installation, "Sónia Almeida: Stages," with a conversation between artist Sónia Almeida and exhibition curator Robert Wiesenberger, curator of contemporary projects.

The free talk takes place in the Clark's Manton Research Center auditorium.

Sónia Almeida: Stages presents three major installations by the artist in public spaces at the Clark. The year-long exhibition is free and open to the public. Almeida (b. 1978, Lisbon; lives and works in Boston) is professor of fine arts at Brandeis University. Through her work, she studies the circulation of images and the status of painting in a post-digital age. The exhibition's subtitle, "Stages," reflects Almeida's interest in the theatricality of artworks and the choreography they imply for viewers. It also implies process, and the steps and layers in Almeida's mixed media work, which often adopts the visual language of diagrams and instructional materials.

Free. Accessible seats available; for information, call 413 458 0570. For more details, visit events.clarkart.edu.

Sónia Almeida: Stages is organized by the Clark Art Institute and curated by Robert Wiesenberger, curator of contemporary projects.

Support for this exhibition is provided by Margaret and Richard Kronenberg.

Reminder to Lanesborough, Williamstown Voters: Mount Greylock School Committee a 'Write-In' Election

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Politicians and pundits in recent years have been preaching patience when it comes to getting election night results.

That usually means places like California, where vote-counting can be complicated or Michigan, where razor thin margins are anticipated.

Add Williamstown and Lanesborough to that list.

It is not a matter of pre-election polling suggesting particularly tight races; there is no such polling. Rather, it is a question of how voters will be making their selections in the race for the Mount Greylock Regional School District Committee.

None of the six candidates who qualified for four seats up for grabs on the panel appear on the ballots that have been mailed out, used in early voting or will be distributed at the polls on Nov. 3.

That means that all votes will be cast as write-ins, and that means it will take significantly longer for election workers to tally up votes in the local election once the polls close at 8 p.m. at Lanesborough Town Hall and Williamstown Elementary School.

As always, voters in both towns vote for all four seats on the ballot: two seats for Lanesborough residents and two for Williamstown residents in this year’s balloting.
