Berkshire Lantern Walk
to
Clark Art Institute 225 South St., Williamstown, Massachusetts 01267
Step into the summer night as the annual Berkshire Lantern Walk tradition continues. With lanterns in hand, travel along the Pasture Trail to Thomas Schütte: Crystal. Along the way, members of the New England Puppet Intensive present a hillside performance with abstract, illuminated objects inspired by contemporary artist Jennifer Steinkamp. Local musicians provide an improvised score. Bring your own lantern or make one at community workshops offered on August 8 and at 5 pm the evening of the walk. Join us for a free evening viewing of Jennifer Steinkamp: Blind Eye from 5–9 pm.
Visitors accompanied by small children or who are unable to stay for the entire performance are encouraged to explore the trails, free paper lantern-making, and the Lantern Garden from 5–9 pm.
Free and open to the public; all lantern-making materials provided.
This program is supported by a grant from the Fund for Williamstown, a fund of Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation; the Massachusetts Cultural Council; and the Cultural Council of Northern Berkshire, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
