Did you know that I’m an Active Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists?
The Federation of Canadian Artists (FCA) is a registered charity founded in 1941 by professional Canadian working artists including Group of Seven luminaries Lawren Harris, Arthur Lismer, and A.Y. Jackson. The first National Executive Council was led by Andre Bieler, and Lawren Harris was the BC region’s first Chairman. Other notable founding members included Emily Carr and the Honorable Mark Kearley.
The mission of the FCA is to advance the knowledge and appreciation of art and culture to all Canadians, offering education, exhibition and communication in the Visual Arts, and to support and promote emerging to professional member artists.
It’s an honour to be included in this group, among some of our country’s most notable artists. I regularly submit my work to be juried and exhibited in the FCA exhibitions, and am currently working toward gaining my Associate Membership.
