    2019 Conference of the Universities Art Room AssociationDufferin of Canada Back to schedule Congrès 2019 de l’Association d’art des universités du Canada October 25–27 octobre 2019 Hilton Quebec 1 Message du président L’intérêt grandissant que suscite le congrès de l’AAUC fait en sorte que nous devons nous adapter à la croissance tout en préservant le caractère informel qui, au fil de plusieurs décennies, s’est avéré adaptable et productif. Cette situation enviable explique que le congrès de cette année se déroule dans un centre de congrès, un format qui sera de plus en plus important à l’avenir. Je suis heureux de terminer mon mandat de président lors de cet événement remarquable et dans ce cadre magnifique. Je tiens à remercier les organisateurs Ersy Contogouris, Erin Silver et Maxime Coulombe, et je suis ravi de voir le nouveau numéro de RACAR, qu’Ersy a codirigé avec Mélanie Boucher, et qui porte sur les tableaux vivants. Je remercie également Fran Pauzé, l’administratrice de l’AAUC, pour son travail au soutien du congrès de cette année et pour m’avoir aidé à rester sur la bonne voie pendant mon mandat au CA de l’AAUC, d’abord comme trésorier, puis comme président. Les compétences financières de Fran — un modèle d’efficacité et de clarté, je le dis sou- vent — expliquent en grande partie le succès durable de l’Association. Je me sens privilégié d’avoir été au service de ma communauté professionnelle de cette manière et j’ai hâte de participer de façons différentes au cours des années à venir, en commençant par le congrès de Vancouver en 2020.
