Join us for an extraordinary evening celebrating art, philanthropy, and the legacy of collecting in British Columbia. The Gordon and Marion Smith Foundation is honoured to announce a significant matching gift from the Audain Foundation, made in recognition of the late artist Ann Kipling’s estate gift. Together, these contributions mark a transformative moment in sustaining art education and public access to the visual arts.
The evening will feature Michael Audain—collector, custodian, and connoisseur—in conversation with Meredith Preuss, Executive Director of the Smith Foundation. Together, they will explore the role of art in civic life, Audain’s longstanding friendship with Gordon Smith, and the deep value of investing in creative learning for future generations.
Guests are invited to enjoy refreshments and view the current exhibition, , before the talk begins.
