Cafe Galt: The Looming Crisis for Public Collections
Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2010
Exhibit opens at 6:00 pm. What are the issues at stake for public collections in Canada today and how can these issues be addressed? Collections are integral for the function of an art museum, yet are all too often taken for for granted. There is an assumption that collections, and the individual objects, will always be there - the reality is that without adequate support and attention, public collections are at risk.
