Board Members

His 25 years of broadcast experience have made him well connected with Yukon political personalities and he is well positioned to use these connections for the benefit of heritage issues both in the Yukon and on a national scale. Marc settled in the Yukon in 1996 and today sits on the board of the Heritage Canada Foundation and the Klondike Visitors’ Association.
Vice-President	Janna Swales Janna Swales is a historical researcher and designer with a yen for museological projects. She is happily situated at the Yukon Transportation Museum trying her hand at a bit of everything. She has been lucky enough to work in several Yukon museums over the past five years: the Copperbelt Railway & Mining Museum in Whitehorse and the George Johnston Museum in Teslin. Janna is particularly interested in linkages of heritage and sense of connection to place: she is currently exploring the importance of strengthening that link within various communities.
Treasurer	Mary Bradshaw Mary Bradshaw is the Gallery Director at the Yukon Arts Centre. With a background in art education and museum studies she has held various cultural administration roles in Whitehorse, Dawson City and the UK. Mary is excited to join the YHMA Board and loves answering "yes" to the question: Wait, art galleries are considered museums??

Kenny Linsay Since I`ve been in the Yukon, I have also worked off and on for the NGO, Bringing Youth Towards Equality (BYTE), on their facilitation team, travelling to different Yukon communities delivering various workshops to youth. That job has taken me to every community except of Burwash and Beaver Creek, and has given me several, AWESOME, learning as well as teaching opportunities. I have also been a part of Yukon College`s board of governor`s, and have experienced compromise, and the benefit of different opinions, skills, and experiences people bring to boards. So with those and other experiences, I look forward to joining the YHMA board. Glenn Iceton Glenn Iceton is a born and raised Yukoner who began working in the heritage field in 2003 as a summer student at the Old Log Church Museum. This eventually turned into a full-time position giving him the chance to participate in numerous projects such as The Bishop Who Ate His Boots travelling exhibit. After a brief hiatus from the heritage field to complete his MA in History, Glenn has returned to Whitehorse and is currently working as auxiliary staff at the Yukon Archives and the Land Claims Implementation Secretariat in addition to working as a heritage contractor.
