What is it like being a Patrons' Circle member?

Participating in the Patrons' Circle is...

“…rewarding on a number of fronts. Perhaps the greatest benefit is a deeper understanding of the importance of the fundraising role of AWH and the evolution of the disease and client needs. We feel like valued contributors to the Casey House community.

The personal benefits are equally rewarding. Our knowledge and understanding of the Canadian contemporary art community – both artists and collectors – has grown immeasurably. Meeting fellow Patron Circle supporters and participating in a wide variety of art-related experiences from auction previews, studio visits and seeing collections is fun and interesting. An added bonus is the extra tickets to the event so we can bring some friends along and get them involved.”
