Our Distinction

This incredible evening took place on Saturday July 19, 2008 at the Gallery Gachet - 88 Cordova Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Gala Theme:

Art is our innate desire to express life’s experiences, feelings, and emotions; while Flowers embody the beauty of our tenderness as well as our strengths. The two combined in this gala provide for an exciting theme showcasing over 30 unique floral pieces created by some of the most compelling artists of the
21 century living right here in Vancouver.

I would like to thank the artists for being courageous enough to support something new with the hope of making a positive change to our communities. The success of the gala exceeded our expections in all respects, encouraging us to do it again.

We are very grateful to our sponsors: PacBlue Digital Imaging, Capers Whole Foods Market, and Marvin Vasquez Photography for their continuing support. And I am equally grateful to Ms. Kimberly Swain for her artwork contributions and also for taking on, and conquering, the role of Art Director for our premier gala. Bravo!

I invite you to peruse the evening's program at your leisure and gaze at our online artwork. You can also place a bid on our online art auction items valued at $4,000 and higher, and experience the beauty of
giving in bloom.
