Gala for Kid Enrichment

Three Girls attening the Art GalaSince 1989 the Foundation has provided a wide variety of arts and life skill and human diversity workshops that bring unique experiences to local kids. These exceptional hands-on experiences with professionals introduce students to richer ways of living and learning. Funding for these enrichment opportunities comes solely from fundraising efforts.

One such effort is the Gala Auction which takes place on November 2 at The Church Restaurant in Stratford.

Now in its’ 19th year, the Gala Auction includes a gourmet meal and live and silent auction items anywhere from getaways to artwork, gift packages to sports tickets – all to make certain that 140 crucial arts and human diversity workshops continue to enhance over 5000 students in the Avon Maitland district throughout year.


All proceeds will go directly into providing ART | LIFE workshops.
