On January 25th 2022, the new Musée régional de l’Outaouais (MRO) held a founding assembly. The Museum could potentially set up satellites across the region, with one roumered to be coming to the Maison culturelle George Bryson.

Supported by Réseau du patrimoine de Gatineau and l’Outaouais, the project made huge steps in 2021, establishing itself as a not-for-profit. Now, the MRO has now officially established its first Board of Directors.

Here is how the MRO’s Board of Directors is composed:

Jean-Marc Blais, president / Francis Rancourt-Proulx, vice-president
Frédéric Laniel, treasurer / Anna Tompkins, secretary
Carole Barbeau, administrator / Laurent Saumure, administrator
Laurence Gillot, administrator / Jessica Minier, administrator
Michelle Guitard, administrator
