EXHIBITIONS & TOURS
FROM THE EDITOR
I am delighted to present the new Quarterly, a fresh design that continues the publication’s steady evolution as both an institutional newsletter and a compelling history magazine. Designer Alison Cody, who has worked on many of our books and catalogs, has created a refined look that allows our images, articles, and nuts-and-bolts information to shine. A new table of contents organizes each issue into departments such as On View, Events, and Resources. We’ve enhanced some favorite features: Acquisitions has retained its nitty-gritty nature and includes a new “spotlight” element that connects new accessions to existing holdings. There are many other surprises in store—one of them, a complete roundup of current visitor information, directly to the right. Our goal, as always, is to share the best of The Collection with our readers. Enjoy! —molly reid
