CLARK ART INSTITUTE GETS $15 MILLION
The Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts, has received a fifteen-million-dollar gift—one of the largest in its history—reports the New York Times_’ Robin Pogrebin. The money will support the Clark’s campus expansion and programs.
The gift came from Felda and Dena Hardymon, who split time between Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the Berkshires. The Clark’s board voted to name the director’s position—held by Michael Conforti—after the Hardymons. Ms. Hardymon joined the board as an honorary trustee in 2013.
It’s not the only gift the Clark’s seen in recent months: The institute received a donation of woodblock prints in February.
