 - Fix "Object of type Decimal is not JSON serializable" error when BigQuery queries returned numeric types in nested data structures ([#2336](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2336), [#2348](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2348))
 - No longer query the information_schema.schemata view on bigquery ([#2320](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2320), [#2382](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2382))
 - Add support for `sql_header` config in incremental models ([#2136](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2136), [#2200](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2200))
+- Postgres array types can now be returned via `run_query` macro calls ([#2337](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2337), [#2376](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2376))
 
 ### Under the hood
 - Added more tests for source inheritance ([#2264](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2264), [#2291](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2291))
