We need your help. Each year Arts Umbrella hosts, at its Granville Island centre, a gala art auction, dinner and dance [entitled] "Splash" - We would be very honoured if you would support Splash. Donations of art pieces by generous artists, like yourself, ensure the success of Arts Umbrella's most important fundraiser - The medium is boxes, which will be stretched canvasses on wooden frames, available in a choice of three forms and sizes, supplied to you by Arts Umbrella - We rely strongly on community support to enable us to supply bursaries for families unable to pay, as well as for free workshops for the artistically gifted and programs for east end and inner city schools, hospitals and special needs programs."
