The Mature Action Community congratulates Arts Whistler on the success of the LIFTing the Community project, which gave new life to old Blackcomb Catskinner Chairs by transforming them into inspiring works of art.
We appreciate that Arts Whistler paired us with Squamish artist Tonnja Kopp who understood completely what belonging means to our age 55-plus community and created a truly beautiful depiction of the view from the old Catskinner lift for our chair. We are thrilled with the outcome.
We wish to thank Arts Whistler, along with other sponsors: Vail Resorts’ Epic Promise Fund, Whistler Blackcomb Foundation, Tourism Whistler, Fairmont Whistler and Neutron Factory Works, for supporting this fundraising initiative.
Funds from the auction of our chair will be used to support Mature Action Community activities on behalf of Whistler seniors.
