The town creates a cosmopolitan flair in rural New England. The July 1984 issue of Connoisseur stated that Williamstown has the most art per capita of any American community. Williamstown is the home of the Sterling and Clark Art Institute, which houses one of the world's largest collections of Renoir and other impressionists. The Williams College Museum of Art has a fine collection in its own right. The Williamstown Theatre Festival, operating during the summer months, brings outstanding Broadway and Hollywood performers to the town.
