High-flying Steinbach Arts Council throws fundraising gala to boost support

Steinbach Arts Council executive director David Klassen spoke at the non-profit’s May 1 fundraising gala. Klassen called the event the charity’s most important fundraiser. SAC expects to see 2,300 program registrations, triple its pre-pandemic numbers. Klassen said the arts council is considered one of Canada’s largest arts organizations, leading the nation in per capita programming, with half of the budget of similar programs elsewhere.
