Brush with Art is grass roots fund-raising initiative that is about partnerships with artists, galleries and businesses to maintain a healthy cultural environment in our region.

Brush With Art is also convinced that a strong cultural sector helps build a strong business sector. The many local businesses that have lined up to support Brush With Art agree with them. Aggie Beynon, the founder, also managing partner of Harbinger Gallery in Waterloo, believes "Brush With Art will become a doable model for other communities that want to encourage growth, co-operation and communication among their arts organizations."

This invitation to engagement prepared for the Creative Intersections forum in 2007 is a good introduction to current BwA purposes and strategies.
