NATIONAL DIRECTOR OF THE AUSTRALIAN MUSEUMS AND GALLERIES ASSOCIATION STEPS DOWN
Alex Marsden, the director of the national peak body for museums and galleries, the Australian Museums and Galleries Association (AMaGA), will be stepping down from her role.
AMaGA president, Dr Robin Hirst, said: ‘Alex has made an extraordinary contribution to AMaGA and put her heart and soul into the welfare of our members and advocacy for all. Over the last five and a half years, as the national director there have been many accomplishments – the First Peoples 10-year Roadmap, the establishment of the GLAM Peak coalition to focus on national digital access to collections, the strategic review and subsequent refocusing and rebranding of our association, and AMaGA’s national professional development program, to name just a few.’
