This December, step into a world of creativity and celebration as local artists from Northern Berkshire and Southern Vermont come together to honor the 150th anniversary of Williamstown’s beloved public library. |

With a special group exhibition featuring forty remarkable artists, each contributing one captivating piece, the library will be transformed into a dazzling gallery of artistic expression from December 2 to December 31. The exhibition will be on view during the library's open hours.
The exhibition’s opening reception will take place on Wednesday, December 4, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the library.
The events and programs of the Williamstown Public Library’s 150th anniversary are made possible through generous funding by local sponsor MountainOne, your local Berkshires bank.

Important News on Yoga Classes! |
|
Yoga classes at the library are incredibly popular, and space fills up so fast! To ensure a smooth experience for everyone, we require pre-registration for each session - we cannot admit walk-ins on the day of the event due to limited space. If you can’t make it, please cancel your spot as soon as possible by either using the cancellation link in your registration confirmation email or contacting Kira Williams at kwilliams@cwmars.org or 413-458-5369.
|
| |
|
Note: You should receive a confirmation email for each class you have signed up for. If your registration is "Complete," you have a spot, but if it says "Waitlist," you don't have a spot unless there is a cancellation. If you are not sure if you are registered for a specific class, feel free to ask Kira about this as well.
