TABLE OF CONTENTS MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT AND THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR & CEO
Dear Members and Supporters: t is the Association’s 70th anniversary and we have so much to take pride in. However it is not a cliché to say this has been a very Iproductive year with its own challenges. The essential values of our association remain today and they are grounded in the very fundamental principles of human dignity, justice and peace.
Following years of attempts to establish a national association CMA finally came into being after World War II at a time of real determination for peace, values and humanitarian beliefs. Major international institutions were established, including the UN, UNESCO, and many others determined for a new world order.
1947 was an exceptional time in history. This is when CMA was established and in turn helped establish the International Council of Museums. The same values guided the CMA at the time and today. We are proud of that tradition.
Your Board of Directors and staff strongly support these values and we are also undertaking a review of our strategic directions and governance to ensure our efficacy in this new and often tumultuous political period of upheaval.
Manon Blanchette, President John G. McAvity, C.M., of the Board of Directors Executive Director & CEO
