Weekly Update from our Director and CEO

grange-park-move

Hello Everyone,

  • Soon you will be able to check out the Moore sculpture in Grange Park! It was quite a feat to move it from Dundas/McCaul to its new pastoral home. Thanks to those who helped with the seamless move. Don’t forget – the official opening of Grange Park is one month away – Saturday, July 8.
  • I spent some time with the Digital Team on Tuesday and learned about the success of our new website ca. Mark McKay and others are carefully tracking webpage metrics as our online audience continues to grow. They are working very hard to ensure that the AGO is easily accessible.
  • Medical emergencies can happen any time at the AGO. Please make sure you know what to do in the event of a life-threatening medical emergency: call 911 first, then ext. 333 to contact the Protection Services Department. The PSD control room will ensure help is on the way. Also, make sure your emergency contact information is updated so that your manager knows who to contact in the event of an emergency.
  • Today I am taking my English language proficiency test as part of my application for permanent residency. Wish me luck!

Enjoy the weekend,

Stephan
