The Galt is well respected in Alberta's museum community, has a growing national profile and is committed to international museum standards. The Archives contain an extensive collection of information on the human history of Lethbridge and Southwestern Alberta. Today, the museum cares for well over 20,000 artifacts and 300,000 archival documents and photographs. These collections continue to grow. The history of Lethbridge and southwest Alberta can be explored through the Galt's rotating world-class exhibitions, special events and school and weekend programs. The Galt Museum Store offers visitors a selection of historic publications and other unique local products. In 2004, our most recent year of full operations prior to the 2005 expansion, 219 volunteers donated 8887 hours of time and talents to enhance the work of eight full-time and five part-time professional staff members. Even during the expansion project, 100 volunteers donated 2650 hours in 2005, before the Galt reopened on May 6, 2006! |
With our stakeholders we have identified a suite of strategies falling into three core work areas:
The Strategic Plan will remain flexible and responsive while guiding the dedicated board, staff and volunteers into 2014. The Galt Board of Directors oversees the facility's objectives and operating policies and serve as a link to the community. Dr. Lucelle Prindle [President, Chair] Retired instructor, Lethbridge
