The Arts Project has lost Bruce Johnson:
From the London Free Press:
The devoted father of four adult sons and “champion of culture,” who many credited Thursday for turning the Arts Project into a beautiful facility, died after suffering a heart attack Wednesday night (November 17th). He was 64.
As word travelled Thursday, friends quickly set up a tribute web page (http://brucejohnson.tumblr.com/) for others to post memories and pictures of the dad, buddy, business executive and more recently arts enthusiast.
I stopped in the Arts Project today and Sandra said that there will be a memorial for Bruce at the Arts Project on Sunday, November 28th at 7:30 p.m.
I have to be there. I saw him so many times while buying tickets or when stopping in to see the art. Bruce was a force - a friendly one.
He will be missed by so many.
On a happier note, the oil paintings by Donna Andreychuk (that are up now until December 4th) are fabulous.
(Bruce hated that word, but it fits.)
A must see.
