The Nova Scotia museum community is deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Peter Cullen, Executive Director of the Ross Farm Museum and ANSM board member. Pete brought a friendly face, level head, and big heart to everything of which he was a part. He will be greatly missed.
Read a tribute to Pete on the ANSM blog here.
ANSM has opened comments on the blog post as a space for the ANSM community. We hope you will share your memories, stories, and condolences. ANSM will ensure this message board is sent to Peter’s family.
In memory of Pete, the ANSM Board has voted to rename our conference bursary the “Dr. Peter Cullen Memorial Bursary.” This bursary, which ran for the first time last fall, supports ANSM members attending our annual conference or symposium. More details will be released in the coming weeks as we prepare for the conference this October.
