  en: PAMA is an accessible, safe space for the diverse communities of the Region of Peel (Brampton, Caledon and Mississauga) to come together and celebrate arts and culture. We strive to be a place where you can see yourself reflected and actively contribute to building a “Community for Life”. It’s a place to explore and learn about Peel’s culture and heritage, as well as use conversation, questions and stories to help make new and fascinating connections to the surrounding community. PAMA offers a variety of workshops and programs for all ages, families, and adults. There is something for everyone. Our buildings are our largest artifacts. The site is made of historic buildings: the Peel County Courthouse and Jail, the former Registry Office, and the Modernist Building. The Region of Peel Archives at PAMA is the official archives of the Region of Peel and its constituent municipalities of Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon. We collect government and non-government records documenting the history and development of the area and its people. Our archival collections cover the old County of Peel as well as the numerous smaller communities within it, from the early 19th century onwards. The records in our collection come to us by transfer (from government offices) or by donation (from private citizens and organizations). Types of records we hold include the following, among many others: Council and committee minutes and reports Bylaws Planning documents Land indexes and deeds ... view more »
