Details of support
Shoppers World Brampton/RioCan
Visual Arts Brampton thanks Shoppers World Brampton profusely
for the daily exposure their mall provides to our group. Shoppers
World is the home of Artway Gallery (since
June 2004), our primarily exhibit area, Artway Invitational Gallery
(since 2010), and Silver Clips Artworks Gallery (since 2011).
Previously the mall hosted Fridge Front Gallery (2005-2011) and
World Art Gallery (2006-2010).
In the late 1980s, VAB participated in the mall's annual Arts
Week events, and through the late 2000s, its annual Looking Up
to the Arts event. More recently, VAB has participated in many
other community events at the shopping
centre.

The Ontario Trillium Foundation/La
Fondation Trillium de L'Ontario
An agency of the Province of Ontario, they are "proud contributors
to building healthy, caring and economically strong communities
by supporting projects that improve the quality of life."
Visual Arts Brampton received a grant from the organization in
early 2003. These funds went to computer equipment, including
computers, printers, scanners, cameras, software, networking,
a projector, etc. A 2008 grant has let us upgrade to laptops for
further instruction, as well as purchase the equipment to shoot
video workshops, which we will release for free online, as vablearn.

Kaneff Properties
Visual Arts Brampton's original home was a City-owned building;
the group wanted to expand by renting two units instead of just
one, but wasn't allowed to rent more than one unit at a time.
This, plus high rent rates, sent the group looking for new locations.
Kaneff Properties has been extremely generous with their rates,
and our Creative Studios have been in the Bartley Square Mall
since 1992 (19+ years).
