End of the week have you feeling drained? #TGIF

Recognize this room? Today’s #TBT goes all the way back to 1956 when the Clark first opened!

Lots of chatter these days about the new #PercyJackson on Disney+ ... catch a glimpse of the original myth in “Perseus Rescuing Andromeda,” depicting the Greek hero Perseus (Percy’s namesake) arriving astride Pegasus, the winged horse, to save the princess Andromeda.

It’s a cold one—we hope you’re staying warm and feeling fabulous!

We’ll be lounging over here if you need us...Happy New Year!

The Clark is closed today; we’ll reopen tomorrow, January 2, at 10 am.

As the sun sets on 2023, we're reminded of how thankful we are for our community here at the Clark. Here's to a great year—we hope you fill it with art and inspiration!

“The picture is painted fifteen minutes after sunset—not one minute before” – Winslow Homer on Prout’s Neck

Feeling inspired by all the detail in this small but mighty painting by Giovanni Boldini, measuring just 5 1/2 x 9 7/16 inches!

Music by Mozart. Production design, puppets, and costumes by Julie Taymor. And Patrick Furrer and Gareth Morrell co-conducting. It doesn’t get much better than our encore screening of Metropolitan Opera's The Magic Flute, this Saturday (12/30) at 12:55 pm! clarkart.edu/event/detail/2…

Feeling a bit like this after all the treats, family time, and parties....how about you?

Wishing you peace, warmth, and happiness! ✨🎄

Gustave Le Gray trained in Paris as a painter before becoming one of the most renowned pioneers of the new art, photography.

Brig on the Water, one of his most noted works, set a new standard for photography and was a sensation when it was first shown. On view now!
