EVENT: Berkshire Young Professionals game show "buzz" at Clark Art Oct. 27


September 12, 2005
CLARK TO "BUZZ" DURING GAME SHOW STYLE EVENING OCTOBER 27
For Immediate Release

WILLIAMSTOWN, MA- Art Buzz, a networking social co-organized with the Berkshire Young Professionals, will test the expertise and nerve of Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute curators in a game show style event on Thursday, October 27 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. Admission to Art Buzz at the Clark is free, as is admission to the galleries during this evening event.

Pitting Clark staff against each other, Art Buzz will feature curator of education Michael Cassin, assistant curator of education Danielle Steinmann, senior curator Richard Rand, and curator of decorative arts Kathleen Morris as contestants. The audience will choose works of art in the Clark collection about which a curator will have one minute to speak. The fun begins when a curator pauses, repeats, or strays from the topic, causing them to be "buzzed," at which time another curator will step up to the "hotseat" for one minute. Guests to Art Buzz will enjoy light snacks and a cash bar.

The Berkshire Young Professionals will take RSVPs from their members for this event. No reservations are needed from non-members. Everyone is welcome.

More information about the Berkshire Young Professionals can be found at www.berkshirechamber.com.

The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm (daily in July and August). Admission June 1 through October 31 is $10 for adults, free for children 18 and under, members, and students with valid ID. Admission is free November through May. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.
