Here is our thank you to the community after our first show in 2022
The weekend of March4-6 emerged from a dark Covid Winter and three days of glorious sunshine erupted like a Dutch daffodil.
As a result the West Fine Art Show was perfectly cradled below the glass ceilings of Glass House Estate Winery
where nearly 600 visitors were welcomed.
Our eighteen artists, delighted to be able to display their art in public once again,
experienced a tsunami of appreciation which lead to many sales and much good will.
25% of all art sales go to the Langley School District Foundation to help support Langley students.
Adding to the sunshine, the West Fine Art Show presented an additional cheque for $1500 to
the aforementioned foundation. The photo shows director Joyce Trygg handing our cheque Alicia Rempel.
The Langley School District Foundation staff and Board of Directors would like to express our deepest appreciation
for the opportunity to be involved in the 13th Annual West Fine Art Show in March 2022. It was an exceptional experience
and our hats are off to you all, for coordinating such a professional and well-run event, especially given the uncertainly
of our world due to Covid-19. As your charitable partner, we would also like to share our appreciation to the participating
artists for donating 25% of their sales to the Foundation in support of Langley students. Over $5,850 was raised
and will be directed to food programming in the district, ensuring that hungry students are fed and able to
concentrate on their education and learning. We thank you again for the opportunity. All the best,
Alicia Rempel
Executive Director
Langley School District Foundation
The West Fine Art Show deeply appreciates the long-time support of the deJong family who, some years ago,
first hosted our show under the “Glass House”. More recently, Joseph Richard Group has generously hosted the West Fine Art Show
thus enabling the show to continue to bring our well-received art show before the public and, this year, to also help us generate supportive
funding for both the Langley School District Foundation and, in our next September show, The Langley Hospice Society.
If we are approaching the beginning of "getting back to normal", we hope our show served
as an injection-of-sunshine, art and the hope for better times ahead.
Here is a thank you from Langley Hospice after our 2021 show:
The 11th Annual West Fine Art Show, hosted by the
Joseph Richard Group at the Glass House Estate Winery
in South Langley on September 17-19, 2021, featured
17 Western Canadian artists on-site to show case their
beautiful works throughout the weekend. The Sept 2021 show
& sale raised more than $10,000.00 from partial proceeds
of art sales. Langley Hospice is grateful for the ongoing
contributions of these amazing artists. (www.westart.ca)
