We NEED your contribution…
for a live and silent auction
in memory of
Doug Cranmer

On the 7^th of April 2007, we the family and friends of Doug Cranmer 
will be hosting a special event, where we will come together and raise 
funds which will be used to help reflect the life works of Doug’s 
journey in the world of his innovative expression within the Pacific 
Northwest Coast art and form.

Our focus is to bring people together at the Fairmont Empress Hotel for 
a dinner followed by a silent and live auction. Here we will raise funds 
to create a Museum Exhibit in Doug’s name. In addition, there will be 
related publications created to further honour Doug’s life as an artist.

Tickets to attend this event will be $125.00. This will include a dinner 
and dessert buffet. There will be a bar open during the duration of the 
event to purchase a variety of alcohol beverages as you mingle with 
friends and view the selected items in the auction and laugh over old 
memories, and better yet, a night of fun!

To make this event a success we are looking for donations to help raise 
funds for the Museum Exhibit and related publications. All items will be 
placed in either the live or silent auction. With the support of the 
Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia, we are 
able to issue tax receipts for this charitable cause.

We are excited and anticipate seeing you at this special event to help 
remember and create a piece of history for such noble man.

If you have any questions, including making a donation and purchasing 
tickets for this event, please contact Rande Cook at 250-294-1044 or by 
email at rancook@mac.com <mailto:rancook@mac.com>.

Our most sincere thanks in advance…
