Volunteer Executive Profiles: Brenda Renwick (Prints & Drawings)

Welcome to Brenda Renwick, the newest member of the Volunteer Executive Committee (VEC) and Chair of The Prints and Drawings Study Centre

Brenda has been volunteering in Prints and Drawings for 5 years and has filled every position, including a term as Secretary for the volunteer committee in the Study Centre. Brenda’s background is in art curation and research; she worked for a private art collector prior to becoming a volunteer.   She originally became involved at the AGO as a researcher and cataloger working on a large photography donation.   She was then offered the opportunity to volunteer in P&D, which she took enthusiastically.
The AGO, she says, “lets me forget the rest of the world,” and “is the place I can focus on what I love – art.”

Thankfully for our volunteer community, Brenda gave up her love of sport, for her love of art! But wasn’t she a cutie? She won the skating competition!– Cara-Lynn Nisenbaum
