Williams College  is a joy to visit; pleasant beyond words, manageable in size and it provides the area with theater and art.

The Williams College Museum of Art is a delightful, compact venue to view incredible collections.

While there, I saw an exhibit of Whistler’s early sketches and small paintings which were almost a prequel to the Clark’s current exhibit.

There was a comprehensive exhibit on Andy Warhol that focused on his beginnings as a graphic artist, book illustrator, designer, book cover designer, children’s book author: all the things I never knew he was before he became a pop art icon.

I risked life and limb to get the Beatles for you, Shirley and Barb!

An array of American art

There is a large exhibit of the works of the brothers Prendergast, Charles and Maurice

Charles Prendergast, more of an American Impressionist

Maurice Prendergast, very much like the French Impressionists

A late lunch-snack in town at Hops & Vines: great spring rolls and burgers
