Are you a member of the Vancouver Art Gallery?

If so we need your help. On Wednesday, September 29th the Vancouver Art Gallery Association is holding their Annual General Meeting for members of the gallery. At this meeting two motions that were submitted by CUPE 15 President Paul Faoro will be discussed and voted on. These motions deal with lack of financial transparency at the VAG and questionable spending practices by senior gallery management.

CUPE 15 members employed by the Vancouver Art Gallery have suffered through layoffs and serious cutbacks and are continually told there is no money. Yet the VAG receives over $4.2 million each year from public bodies and the VAG refuses to fully disclose where the money is going. It’s time to get financial disclosure at the Art Gallery and with your help this can happen.

The AGM will be held on Wednesday, September 29th at 5:30 p.m. in the forecourt (first floor) of the Vancouver Art Gallery at 750 Hornby Street, Vancouver. Please try to attend.
