Lookout is making sure The Art Studios survives

We are grateful to the Lookout Housing & Health Society now running The Art Studios – making sure it lives on after Vancouver Coastal Health’s ownership. They Rock!

Donors:

A Private Family Foundation – saved The Art Studios

The Art Studios owes it very existence to this highly respected couple, Bill and Risa Levine, who jumped in to save The Studios when its lifeline funding was cut by Vancouver Coastal Health. They are so supportive to Recovery Through Art in its mission for wellness.

Jane Bryans – a great supporter of Recovery Through Art

Jane Bryans is a truly gracious and outstanding supporter of The Art Studios and Recovery Through Art. Jane worked in Perinatal Research, and helped found the Molly Towell Perinatal Research Foundation 25 years ago as one of 3 founding Trustees. She continues to help run the Foundation and, in memory of her late husband, created an endowment to support the Fred Bryans Master Teacher Program at UBC. Health and medicine have been at the centre of Jane’s life from its start. Her father, Dr. Neil McKinnon, was a pioneer in the development of a vaccine against diphtheria and served as assistant director of Connaught Laboratories. We are so pleased to have Jane as a champion for mental health. Thank you, Jane.
