deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum taps John Ravenal, CCL class of 2012, to be its new Director.

John B. Ravenal, currently the curator for modern and contemporary art at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, will take the helm as new executive director in mid-January. Of his new post, Ravenal notes “Their new sense of ambition is something that really interests me.
