The Associated Designers of Canada (ADC) was founded in 1965 as a professional, not-for-profit organization supporting all set, costume, lighting, projection and sound designers regardless of the stage in their careers. It additionally advocates to increase awareness of the role of theatrical design in Canadian theatre and of design as an art form within both the profession and the public domain.

This collection features minutes, correspondence, contracts, newsletters, and files on Canada’s participation in various Prague Quadriennales.
