WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute's First Sundays Free program returns on Sunday, Oct. 3, and admission to the galleries is free to all visitors for the entire day.
 
Advance registration is strongly recommended.
 
Visitors are invited to explore the Clark, indoors and outdoors. 
 
See the Clark's first outdoor exhibition, "Ground/work," consisting of site-responsive installations by six international artists, before it closes on Oct. 17. There will be an outdoor, socially distanced talk about three installations: Nairy Baghramian's "Knee and Elbow," Eva Lewitt's "Resin Towers," and Kelly Akashi's "A Device to See the World Twice" —at 11 am. 
 
At 2 pm, Clark educators lead a guided walk about the other three "Ground/work installations": Jennie C. Jones's "These (Mournful) Shores," Analia Saban's "Teaching a Cow How to Draw," and Haegue Yang's "Migratory DMZ Birds on Asymmetric Lens." 
 
Space on these walks is limited and pre-registration is required for all participants. Visit clarkart.edu/events for more information and to register.
 
From 1–4 pm, portable pastel kits are available at the "Observation Station," where visitors can design their own eye-catching display dome diorama.
 
Indoors, take advantage of the last opportunity to see the exhibition "Dürer & After," on view through Oct.3 in the Eugene V. Thaw Gallery. Also on view at the Clark, "Claude & François-Xavier Lalanne: Nature Transformed," is presented through Oct. 31 in the Michael Conforti Pavilion and in additional outdoor locations. The exhibition is the first North American museum in forty years to showcase the Lalannes' world of objects. In addition, visitors can explore the year-long installation "Erin Shirreff: Remainders," on view in the Clark's Manton Research Center and in the lower level of the Clark Center.
