NORTH ADAMS, Mass. –Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts (MCLA) Gallery 51 will debut a new exhibit, "Liminal Spaces: the Overlooked and the Otherworldly," on Thursday, April 20 at 5 p.m.  
 
According to a press release:  
 
This exhibit showcases the work of six artists whose imagery focuses on being between spaces or times, such as ending college and beginning life outside of school, or finding one's way through changes of the pandemic's impacts on our lives, to subtler states of being that are often overlooked or fantasized.  
 
Each artist's work explores these larger themes differently. Senior Eloise Baker's installation relates to hidden computer code made apparent through weaving; Tiffany Ferriera's '23 collage-paintings pull together common elements from nature, living, and dying; Rachel Zemsky's '23 imagery activates considerations of burn-out and recovery; whereas Deianara Seamans' '23 colorful rabbits implore us to consider folklore passing through our attention; Joseph Vigiard's '23 drawings imply dreams of the past and the future; and Delano Mill's '23 comics detail stories of moving through revenge to difficult truths.  
 
"Liminal Spaces" is a culmination of MCLA Art Major seniors' final exhibit of their expertise and artistry. 
 
The reception is free and open to the public.

Two-Car Crash Closes Church Street

Staff Reports
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A collision between two vehicles shut down a section of Church Street on Wednesday afternoon, followed shortly afterward by a three-car accident near Specialty Minerals in Adams. 
 
The North Adams crash occurred shortly after 3:30 p.m. when a GMC Denali pickup apparently collided with a Subaru Crosstrek attempting to exit from south driveway at Southview Cemetery. 
 
The truck incurred extensive front end damage and the Crosstrek damage on the front driver's side. Scanner reports initially referred to someone having a broken arm but no one was taken to the hospital. 
 
Church Street was closed between Drury High School's entrance and the skating rink for nearly an hour until tow trucks could take the vehicles away. Drivers either turned around or cut through Southview Cemetery and the skating rink parking lot. 
 
Traffic was also disrupted by the accident on the railroad tracks in Adams. No one was apparently injured in that collision either.
