Domaine Forget’s 30th anniversary strikes a chord with Groupe Germain
Sponsorship of a concert and five-year funding commitment
Groupe Germain feels strongly about issues involving youth and the arts. It was therefore naturally drawn to the mission of Domaine Forget and its Music and Dance Academy, which trains a new generation of talents and presents performing artists to the public.
Acting for today…
Groupe Germain is proud to become a partner of Domaine Forget by participating in its fundraising campaign. More specifically, Groupe Germain will sponsor a Festival concert by soprano Marianne Fiset and pianist Marie-Eve Scarfone to the tune of $5,500 as part of the Les Découvertes series. The concert will take place on July 5.
… and for tomorrow
Given that the Domaine Forget fundraising campaign has multiple objectives, Groupe Germain also wishes to provide longer term support. The company will therefore donate a total of $25,000 over five years. In this way, Groupe Germain hopes to help Domaine Forget better meet the needs of young musicians and dancers and to cement its position as one of Canada’s top arts centers.
