Prime Ministers and the Arts

Library and Archives Canada is the main repository for documents relating to Canada\u2019s Prime Ministers. LAC not only has all the political documents relating to each Prime Minister, but also intriguing, less official and often unexpected items. \nThe exhibition entitled Prime Ministers and the Arts: Creators, Collectors and Muses curated by LAC employees Madeline Trudeau and five time podcast guest Meaghan Scanlon, weaves artwork, artifacts, documents, objects, portraits and photographs together to reveal a less formal, but equally fascinating side to our former Prime Ministers. \n\nThe exhibition is on right now at 395 Wellington in Ottawa. It runs until December 3rd, 2019. \n
