[BCMA] Fwd: Doukhobor Discovery Centre

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

We're going to miss your insights, dedication, and forthright views, Larry.

Every so often the museum community is graced with a voice that speaks out loud and clear on really important matters, and your's certainly has been among the tops.

Let's hope you stay abreast of events and in-touch with our members.

Best of luck!

  After seventeen years at the helm of the Doukhobor Discovery Centre, I have resigned my  post as Curator.
  There have been many highlights along the way, three HSMBC designations, major exhibits with the assistance of BC Arts Council, Vancouver Foundation and Columbia Basin Trust [primarily] along with major web site development and on line exhibits. We have also made major improvements in the infrastructure.
  I am grateful to those institutions and individuals who shared my vision and helped me with many of these projects and in particular, I give full credit to the supportive Board of Directors of the Kootenay Doukhobor Historical Society. Ron Mahonin was an exemplary collaborator in many of these projects. 
  The City of Castlegar has also been instrumental in the success of the Centre.
  I am happy to ascertain that I have left the Centre in a better condition than I found it.
  I leave with the anticipation that the standards we have set will be maintained with  continuing diligence and attention paid to our heritage and history.
  I will continue my interest and work in matters historic, albeit in not so dedicated a full time fashion.
