The Contemporary Art Gallery Endowment Fund was established in November 2005 to build endowment funds to support the long-term objectives and annual operations of the Contemporary Art Gallery. We are committed to ensuring that the intent and value of donor contributions are preserved in perpetuity. Endowment Gifts will be enhanced by the availability of government matching grants from the Province of BC under the BC Arts Renaissance Endowment Fund. This matching program provides a clear incentive to contribute to this year's campaign, as any dollar you donate will become two. Our goal is to make the Contemporary Art Gallery fulfill its potential as a centre of excellence for contemporary art, an effective presence in the cultural life of Vancouver, and a worthy ambassador for Vancouver in the national and international art community. This will allow us to enrich our exhibitions, and to develop more broad-based and accessible outreach and public education programs. Help us achieve this goal.
