Weekly Message from Our Director & CEO, Stephan Jost

Hello everyone,

Earlier this week I attended the Association of Art Museum Directors conference in Washington, DC, which was the first time we’ve gathered in person in a couple of years. It was good to see people again! We chatted about a bunch of topics and noted that a lot of things are shifting in our sector. I have to say, the AGO is part of more successful group of museums that have adapted well to these shifts. The changes we have made to our exhibitions, collections and programs, the launch of the Annual Pass, our visitor experience, have all helped position us very well. Thank you – all of you – for your help with these changes.

I saw the poster and I heard from Paul Ayers, President, OPSEU Local 535, about the union party. It is really important for us to re-connect, enjoy life and have a party occasionally.

The party for OPSEU members is Tuesday, November 15th at 6pm at the Amsterdam Brew House, located at 245 Queens Quay West. Hope you can attend!

Take care,

Stephan
