Introduction

The launch of the Canada chapter of INTBAU will be held on Thursday 2 October from 7pm - 10pm at La Maison du Chevalier in Quebec City, Canada, concurrently with the ICOMOS General Assembly.

After much planning and support from some of our INTBAU members, we are delighted to announce the launch of INTBAU Canada, which will be in Quebec City on Thursday October 2, 2008 during the ICOMOS General Assembly. The purpose of the launch is to meet other like minded people, enjoy our interesting line-up of speakers and socialize over the wine and cheese tasting that we will offer in the old vaults of La Maison du Chevalier.

If interested, please download and fill out the registration form and return it to Naomi Lane, Co-ordinator of INTBAU Canada, with your payment before September 26, 2008. We look forward to seeing INTBAU and non-INTBAU members there, and please circulate this information to others who you think might be interested.
