The Gerry Atwell Memorial Mentorship Fund.


Inspired by Gerry’s lifelong commitment to mentoring emerging artists, the Atwell Family and the St. Norbert Arts Centre have established the Gerry Atwell Memorial Mentorship Fund. The Fund will provide support for professional artists to work with talented emerging artists from communities underrepresented in the Artistic sector. The mentorship fund is administered by the St. Norbert Arts Centre with the Atwell family’s direction and in collaboration with community organizations that were near and dear to Gerry’s heart.

Tax receipts will be issued for donations of more than $15.00. This fund will remain open for ongoing donations. Be sure to join us for GerryFest – the Annual Festival dedicated to the life and work of Gerry Atwell – a fundraiser for the Gerry Atwell Memorial Mentorship Fund. This fund is being held in trust by the Winnipeg Foundation through the St. Norbert Arts Centre.
