Hello Everyone,

Since Wednesday, Tim Whiten: A Little Bit of Light has been on preview to AGO Members. It will open to everyone on Saturday, with at talk at 2pm with Tim and the exhibition’s Curator, Julian Cox. It is an exquisite exhibit featuring lots of glass (thank you Security!). Tim was the winner of the Gershon Iskowitz Prize awarded in 2022. Do take a few quiet moments to walk through and view the art. Thank you to everyone involved with Tim’s show. 

Values: Let’s remember that while we all have our own personal values, the AGO Values guide how we show up for one another and commit to working together:

Respect: We foster belonging and appreciate each other.

Openness: We interact with an open mind and thoughtful engagement.

Collaboration: We believe in the power of together.

Accountability: We own our actions and outcomes.

We will continue to discuss and communicate our Values so that everyone has a shared understanding of their meaning and purpose. It’s very important work and I appreciate everyone’s involvement and attention to our Values.

With March Break, the final weeks of The Culture, and the arrival of Spring, I want to acknowledge our Facilities crew for the amazing work they do maintaining our building and keeping it clean and safe for our public – and all of us – especially during busy periods when we have lots of visitors onsite. They do an amazing job, and their work is invaluable to maintaining a positive visitor experience. Thank you, everyone in Facilities, and across all areas of building maintenance. We appreciate you!

Take care,

Stephan
