Show detail Hide detail

Sub-series consists of the files of Donald MacSween as Director General for the period 1980-1987. MacSween became Director General in 1977, but for the first three years of his tenure, he continued to use the file classification system put in place by his predecessor, Hamilton Southam; MacSween's files, then, for the period 1977-1980 can be found in the other sub-series in this series (MIKAN 135300, RG149-A-1). In 1980, MacSween adopted a new file classification system for his files. The present sub-series contains MacSween's files from the inception of the new file classification system in 1980 until he left office in 1987.

The records contain correspondence related to the various departments in the National Arts Centre, minutes of the meetings of the executive committee of the Board of Trustees and of the full Board, and correspondence involving the federal government, the provinces, and foreign governments. The files touch on almost every aspect of the operation of the National Art Centre including administrative matters and programming.
