We are pleased to announce a new partnership with CIBC Private Wealth, Wood Gundy Kingston. Johnson, Johnston, and Macrae Investment Group is the sponsor for Agnes’s Art and Wellness Speaker Series over the next three years!

“CIBC Private Wealth in Kingston is thrilled to support Agnes, a vibrant and culturally dynamic organization. CIBC Private Wealth serves the community by enriching quality of life for families and businesses, much in the way art empowers us with a sense of purpose, improving our lives through creativity and nourishment” says Jamie Vickers, Branch Manager, Kingston, CIBC Private Wealth. “This partnership is a wonderful vehicle for our valued clients to learn about the art world through gala events and the Art and Wellness Speaker Series. Art persuades us to see the world from a thoughtful and diverse perspective, promoting entrepreneurial and productive energy. In the world of wealth management, what separates us from the rest is our ability to leverage this energy to do great work with our clients. Investing in the arts is investing in the community, and that is a shared value, and the crux of everything we do.”

Building on the success of our 2020 Art and Wellness Speaker Series pilot project, Agnes Cares: Art and Wellness Speaker Series (Fall 2022) welcomes those working in art and wellness and those looking to learn more about its generative intersection. Community-centred panels, performances, talks and workshops mobilize the transformative power of art to create more equitable, inclusive and sustainable worlds. Stay tuned for more information.
