The Finance and Administration department of the gallery manages the Winnipeg Art Gallery's financial affairs and building administration. In the earlier years of the WAG (preceding 1972), these functions were performed by the Director. When the WAG moved to the Memorial Boulevard location and subsequently expanded both their operations and their staff, responsibility for the Finance and Administration functions was delegated.
