1. Town Offices - On these walls you will find the Andover town seal, that shows the date Andover was incorporated. The man pictured represents Chief Cutshamache, Sagamore of the MassachuseAs Tribe, who sold the land to Mr. John Woodbridge for 6 English pounds and a coat. Once you’ve found the year please use the stamp hanging on the wall next to the mural to stamp your map. 2. Memorial Hall Library - Here we have books, programs, art, and maybe even your favorite quote. But, today your mission is to find something you would use to row a certain boat. Once you have found this item see someone at the circulaNon desk to receive a special prize and get a stamp on your map. 3. Orange Leaf - How many of the buildings in the mural near the front entrance can you name? Find the answers on the back of this page. 4. Addison Gallery at Philips Academy - Take a selfie in front of the “View of PiAsburgh” or “Natural History: Shoot #4” sculptures near the Addison (for hints on locaNon and what they look like see the back of this page) and post to the ACC Facebook page or tag #andovercultural on Instagram. Be sure to check out the 4 current exhibiNons, including RevoluNon of the Eye: Modern Art and the Birth of Modern Television through July 31 st . The Gallery is closed the month of August. 5. Andover Bookstore - Within this store lies a special dog. He’s short and cute, some might say he even resembles a log. When you’ve found this dog see someone at the check out counter to get your stamp. 6. Andover Historical Society - Not only was George Washington the first President of the United States, he was the naNon’s first symbol of American idenNty. As seen in our current exhibit, George Washington: Hero, Demigod, Face of a New NaNon, he became an important, recognizable symbol of unity for the new naNon. Find George at the Andover Historical Society’s Amos Blanchard House. Pose like George in a photo (don’t forget to tag #washingtoninandover on Instagram or post it to our Facebook page) and tell us what you think symbolizes American idenNty today.
