Administrative history

On 4 April 1967 Council appointed an Interim Advisory Museum Board further to a recommendation by the Board of Administration (23 Mar. 1967) which dealt with the "Heinrich" report (1966), a previous Board of Administration report (1966), and recommendations of the Art Gallery Association and Special Joint Committee (Museum and Maritime Museum).

The Interim Board was to provide Council with:

  • recommendations on the new museum complex's organization, objectives, budget, supporting associations, policy, and administration;
  • review of the City of Vancouver and the Vancouver Museums Association agreements and by-law no. 3960; and,
  • recommendations on a permanent museum board.

Board membership was comprised of several members each from the Vancouver Civic Museum Board, the Special Joint Committee, and the Vancouver Museums Association, and others nominated by the foregoing. The Board may have dissolved on an informal basis in 1968.
