Mission and Objectives
The Grantham Foundation for the Arts and the Environment has a dual mission. On the one hand, it supports the creation of visual art and the study of art and architecture as they relate to the environmental challenges of the Anthropocene. On the other hand, it ensures the dissemination and visibility of its activities, particularly among schoolchildren, students and senior citizens.
While paying particular attention to the Quebec context, the Foundation's mission is to promote the meeting of cultures at the local, national and international levels.
With a focus on excellence,
it supports artists and researchers whose work fits within the Foundation’s mission,
it offers them a place to meet,
it encourages the presentation and promotion of artworks and writings that are consistent with the Foundation’s mission,
it uses the visual arts as a means to raise awareness, among the public in general and young students in the Drummondville region in particular, of the importance of environmental issues.
