A Check in with The Clark: Current and Upcoming Exhibitions

Tucker Bair

In 1950, Sterling and Francine Clark chartered the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute as a home for their extensive art collection. Opened to the public in 1955, the Clark has built upon this extraordinary group of works to become one of the most beloved and respected art museums in the world.

We are so lucky to have the museum in our region, in Williamstown, Massachusetts, and to call the fine people who work there, friends of WAMC and The Roundtable.

The RT welcomes Director and Deputy Director of The Clark – respectively – Olivier Meslay and Esther Bell.
