It’s a new year and a new newsletter! This month, John Bergman-McCool and Marla Taylor wrap the Peabody Institute in plastic in the final phases of preparing the building for our (very nearly started!) renovation work. We are also pleased to hear from Phillips Academy Senior Jack Angelo, who explains the inspiration behind the creation of the Andover Anthropological Society’s blog site. If you’re looking for what to read next, we absolutely recommend you go there. Stay well and stay warm!
