As part of our 10th Anniversary celebrations, a special Conversations on Collecting series will feature collectors in conversation on the key topics of arts philanthropy: Nurturing the Artistic Talent of Tomorrow, Collecting to Build Community, Transformational Legacies.
In this roundtable discussion, we are delighted to feature leading arts philanthropists and collectors Cathy Busby, Pantea Haghighi, Houman Sarshar, Melissa Karmen Lee and Karen Tam. They will discuss how collections support material and immaterial practices, histories, and memories. The event will look at how patronage supports communities through celebration and inspiration, resilience and legacy.
This series is a collaboration between Griffin Art Projects and Contemporary Art Society Vancouver (CASV) in partnership with the Vancouver Art Gallery.
Conversations on Collecting is generously sponsored by Acera Insurance.
*This event is ticketed with a $15 fee. Registration is required as seating is limited.
