CEO for Royal BC Museum eyes ongoing change

The board of directors of the Royal BC Museum announced today that Tracey Drake has been officially appointed CEO of the Royal BC Museum, effective March 1.

“Based on Tracey’s exceptional progress, we are removing the ‘acting’ from her title,” RBCM Board Chair Leslie Brown said. “It has become clear to the board, as well as those working closely with Tracey, that she continues to be the leader to guide the museum and add stability and vision for what is an exciting time of growth, along with important community and province-wide consultation.”

As CEO, Drake oversees Royal BC Museum operations, BC Archives, and IMAX, as well as province-wide community engagement, repatriation and DRIPA implementation as well as the archives, research and collections building project in Colwood.

Last month, the Royal BC Museum announced a diverse slate of feature exhibitions for 2024, including Stonehenge, Canadian Modern and Wildlife Photographer of the Year.
