Community Partners & Contributors
The Foundation of The Arts Foundry
As a non-profit, we rely on the generosity of our community to keep our facility going. Sponsors and donors have provided services and support vital to the Foundry’s mission, vision, and operations.
All proceeds, whether from registrations/sales or public and sponsor donations and grants, go directly towards keeping the Foundry mission alive. We first pay our instructors, then make sure our rent is paid, and our lights are on. Specialized grants are used for renovations, special programs, and public events such as the Leduc Art Walk.
Our Users & Tenants
We are so grateful for our Linx volunteers, Henry and Suzanne, for keeping our space clean & tidy every week!
