Glenn Andres, Professor Emeritus History of Art and Architecture at Middlebury College, will present History Happens Here. In his words: "Middlebury and Addison County have a remarkable history, importantly documented by the Henry Sheldon Museum, of persons and events from Revolutionary times onward that have had more than local, in many cases national and even international, significance. Prof. Andres will explore stories of area contributions and contributors to the histories of such things as education, manufacturing, architecture, politics, abolitionism, conservation, and same-sex marriage." Ripton Historical Society invites all area residents to attend Dr. Andres' presentation, as this is the story the towns of Addison County have shared and together have influenced history well beyond our local borders.
