Arprim Fundraiser
Arprim are working on a major overhaul of their mission and branding. To help fund their metamorphosis they have launched a fundraiser titled Transformation extrême, with the goal of raising $25,000. The funds raised will be matched by the government at 300%, so a $50 donation will be transformed into a $200 donation!

En Masse For The Masses Fundraiser
EN MASSE For The Masses (EMFTM) is the pedagogical branch of the EN MASSE collaborative drawing project. The En Masse team visits local schools and allows students to collaborate with the artists to create large-scale artworks. EMFTM “creates an avenue for students to speak directly to emerging and professional artists, brings contemporary art to schools, pays artists to help them develop their careers, and helps nurture a new generation of aspiring artists that may one day take on the role of mentors themselves.”
Galerie Pangée are hosting a fundraising event on Wednesday, June 13 to support the EMFTM team, starting at 6:00 p.m.
