‘Celebrating Pittsfield’ Photo Show Opens at the Lichtenstein
Cultural correspondent Bess J. M. Hochstein reports from Pittsfield: The city at the heart of the Berkshires kicked off its 250th anniversary with a juried photography show, Celebrating Pittsfield, at the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts. Judging from the crowds at the opening reception on Friday, January 14, a good portion of Pittsfield’s population showed up for the celebration. Local photographers, ranging from amateurs to pros, captured the city’s best angles, with shots of glorious foliage, festive 3rd Thursdays, and Pittsfield’s renowned 4th of July Parade.
