2006-2007 Fundraising campaign

Under the leadership of Pierre Paquet, president and editor of Communications Voir, Graff celebrated, in 2006, its 40th anniversary -a feat in contemporary art. The best visual artists have benefited from its services and still maintain close ties with the organization dedicated entirely to research and production of printmaking.

 

On April 4, 2006, a benefit cocktail party launched Graff’s first large-scale fundraising campaign, organized on the occasion of its 40th anniversary. The objective is to collect 100 000 $ from now to the end of December 2007.
