Series includes records relating to Pam Brown’s role as an instructor with the Aboriginal Museum Internship Programme, a three-week program that aimed at teaching native participants the skills necessary to produce inexpensive exhibits and source books for their communities. Records include memoranda, reports, program evaluations by interns, a curriculum outline, and photographs.

Series includes records created, received, and/or set aside by Pam Brown and her predecessor Anne-Marie Fenger in the course of their duties as supervisors of the Native Youth Programme (NYP, also called the Native Youth Project). Since 1999 Pam Brown has supervised the Native Youth Programme (NYP, formerly called the Native Youth Project), which aims to provide First Nations high school students with the opportunity to gain leadership and public speaking skills through a season of full-time employment as cultural interpreters at MOA. Brown’s responsibilities as NYP supervisor include securing funding for the employment of a program coordinator and six students and overseeing their training. The NYP was originally founded in 1979 by MOA curator Madeline Bronsdon-Rowan, who served as the program’s first supervisor. Bronsdon-Rowan retired in 1987 and was succeeded by Anne-Marie Fenger, whose records Brown subsequently inherited.

The records in this series document the organization and administration of the Native Youth Programme and the functions and activities of the NYP supervisor, including: student worker recruitment and training, educational programs and presentations, grants and funding, public events (including fundraising), field trips, publicity, and conference planning.

Records in this series include correspondence, memoranda, reports, press clippings, grant applications, press releases, schedules, liability waivers, study trip itineraries, public comment books, student assignments, scripts for student presentations, photographs, and audio recordings.

Series consists of records produced during the planning and execution of the 1998 Repatriation Forum. Pam Brown coordinated the Forum, which was held in the First Nations House of Learning and co-sponsored by UBC MOA, the Museum of the American Indian, and the Smithsonian Institute. Following the Forum, Pam Brown solicited permission from speakers to include their talks in a booklet of the Forum proceedings. Records in the series include invitations to speakers, registration records (including payment information), correspondence, permission forms, evaluation forms, and transcripts.

Series documents the development and implementation of the Aboriginal Cultural Stewardship Program (ACSP) at MOA, an educational program which Pam Brown designed in 1994-1995. The Aboriginal Cultural Stewardship Program was similar to the Aboriginal Museum Internship Programme in that it provided native participants with practical training in how to develop low-cost, effective displays and resource materials on cultural subjects; ACSP, however, was a more in-depth educational program than AMIP and was six weeks long instead of three. Records in this series include reports, correspondence, press releases, and evaluation forms of interns and the program itself.

Series is composed of sourcebooks and related materials such as correspondence, consent forms, research notes, and exhibit design stemming from sourcebooks. Sourcebooks in this series were created under the guidance of Pam Brown. Many of the source books were created through the Aboriginal Museum Internship Programme and are often either autobiographical or offer perspectives and insights into the Aboriginal interns’ communities and lives. Other sourcebooks were produced in conjunction with First Nations artists. Though most of the sourcebooks were originally laminated or bound in binders, in 2011 and 2012, MOA published four hard cover copies of the sourcebooks, which are also included in the Series.
