Soon, the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art, an initiative of =
the Bill Reid Foundation, will open in a purpose-built gallery at 639 =
Hornby Street in Vancouver (formerly the Canadian Craft Museum). This =
gallery will house and feature the Bill Reid Foundation Collection. The =
facility is under a 99 year lease to the City of Vancouver as a cultural =
amenity bonus space and the Foundation is the long-term sub-lessee, =
having been awarded the space by the City.
The Bill Reid Foundation is the trustee of the Bill Reid Foundation =
Collection. The Foundation also carries out other charitable activities =
on behalf of other beneficiaries.
We are looking at different governance models as we explore how best =
to structure the Gallery and the Foundation. Currently, both Foundation =
and Gallery operate as one, with one charitable tax number and one board =
of directors.
We welcome advice on good resources or case studies.
Thanks,
Mavis Dixon
