We cordially invite you and a guest to a special Members event.
The AGH is thrilled to present this exclusive opportunity for all Members in partnership with Cowley Abbott Fine Art Auctioneers.
Mix and mingle with fellow members and learn more from Rob Cowley about the sale of the most valuable Canadian Art collection ever sold at auction. This exceptional collection was the highest single owner auction in Canadian history grossing $36.6 million! The talk will highlight the process of acquiring the impressive collection, the research and cataloging as well as the reasons why this collection was so well received by the market. Following the talk, there will be a chance for a short Q&A with Cowley Abbott associates.
Connect with other active AGH Members while enjoying light food offerings, refreshments, and a cash bar.
