Support the OCC's 2009 Annual Members Campaign

Help us reach our fundraising goal!  

Each year, the Ontario Crafts Council’s Annual Members Campaign provides critical financial support to the OCC. Your generous donation to this campaign plays an essential role and ensures that the Ontario Crafts Council is able to:

• Deliver valuable programs that promote and grow the careers of craft professionals

• Develop exhibitions that arouse curiosity and connect our artists with an interested public, providing the opportunity to celebrate, examine and asses the state of craft

• Produce publications that animate the excitement and relevance of contemporary craft to the forefront of cultural discussion

• Champion innovation, originality, and the highest standard of quality in craft

Recently you should have received one of two letters of support for this important campaign from OCC members Don Stuart and Noelle Hamlyn. To read both their letters, please click on the links below.
