qMAS' New Assistant Curator: Mary Williams

In April qMAS welcomed new Assistant Curator Mary Williams. A little bit about Mary...

Mary grew up in Brampton, Ontario, and moved to Peterborough, Ontario to attend Trent University for a Bachelor of Arts & Science in ancient history and biological anthropology, and then proceeded to study at Fleming College in its Museum Management & Curatorship program. She is currently doing online courses to obtain a Certificate in Writing for Professionals.

Since 2019, Mary has worked at the Stratford Perth Museum in Stratford, Ontario as a collections assistant, and at Lang Pioneer Village Museum in Keene, Ontario as part of the facilities team. She is particularly interested in being able to bring history to life through exhibits and hands-on experiences.

As a new resident to both Powell River and B.C., Mary is looking forward to exploring along the beaches and visiting the local library. Moving across the country has many ups and downs, and once settled she hopes to really get to know the town.
