WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Saturday, Oct. 28, visit the Clark Art Institute in costume to celebrate all things spooky, silly, and anything in between. 
 
From 2–4 pm, visitors are invited to design their own masks in the lower level of the Clark Center.
 
Take advantage of the last chance to see the exhibition "Humane Ecology: Eight Positions" before it closes on Oct. 29. Presented in outdoor and indoor spaces at the Clark, including both the Clark's Conforti Pavilion and the Lunder Center at Stone Hill, the exhibition features eight artists who explore the inseparability of the natural and social. 
 
In addition, visitors can explore the year-long installation "Elizabeth Atterbury: Oracle Bones," on view in the Clark's Manton Research Center and in the lower level of the Clark Center.
 
Visitors in costume receive free admission and a small treat from the Clark. Children 21 and under always visit for free.
 
Family programs are supported by Allen & Company.

Williams' Kirshe, U.S. Women Earn Historic Bronze Medal

In dramatic fashion Tuesday, the U.S. women's rugby sevens and Williams College graduate Kristi Kirshe beat Australia, 14-12, to win the bronze medal at the Paris Olympic Games.
 
Alex Sedrick made a run from deep in the Americans' defensive zone for a try with time expired to erase a 12-7Si deficit against the favored Aussies.
 
Kirshe, who dominated Team USA's quarter-final victory on Monday to get to the medal round, started and played the length of Tuesday's semi-final loss and the third-place win.
 
After Australia, the 2016 gold medalist, was shocked by Canada in the semi-finals, the Wallabies jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first two minutes of the bronze match.
 
With just more than a minute left in the first half, America's Alev Kelter scored a try off a restart from the 5-meter line, and the conversion tied the score, 7-7, going to half-time.
 
Early in the second half, Australia appeared to be going in for a try to take the lead, but a fumble through the try zone gave the ball back to the Americans.
 
Australia did break through about three minutes later, scoring with 1 minute, 41 seconds left on the clock to take the 12-7 lead.
