Clark Art Announces Final Free Sunday of the Season 08:01AM / Thursday, April 28, 2022 | |
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute holds its final First Sunday Free program of the season on Sunday, May 1.
Offering free admission to the galleries and special exhibitions from 10 am–5 pm, the day also features a series of activities from 1–4 pm, centered around this month's theme, "May Day at the Clark." Visitors are invited to weave a spring wall hanging, make a kit to plant your own flower garden, and enjoy live music. At 2 pm, join a docent to browse springtime highlights in the Clark's collection.
Visitors can see the Clark's current special exhibition, "As They Saw It: Artists Witnessing War," before it closes on May 30. The exhibition examines the role artists played in documenting the events and experiences of war over four centuries.
Also on view is a year-long installation of contemporary works by artist Tomm El-Saieh. The exhibition, "Tomm El-Saieh: Imaginary City," is the latest offering in the Clark's on-going presentation of contemporary art in public spaces and is on view in multiple locations in the Clark Center and Manton Research Center.
