July is Legacy Fund month at MAWA! That means all donations made this month on our website, mawa.ca/donate, will be allocated to the fund. Held at the Winnipeg Foundation, the goal of this endowment fund is to pay for the Foundation Mentorship Program (FMP) FOREVER!
Graphic that includes a picture of Foundation Mentorship Program mentees sitting in a circle on the floor of MAWA's space to plan their group exhibition. Text says: Legacy Fund Month. Once MAWA's Legacy Funded is fully funded, it will sustain the Foundation Mentorship Program indefinitely. "The program increased my skillset, cemented my ambitions and created the environment that allowed me to see myself as a capable and professional artist." - Sacha Kopelow. Your donation will help ensure the continuation of this dynamic program for future generations of women and gender diverse artists. mawa.ca/donate.
