The Art of Prosperity - Smart Business Needs Art
MT&L has sponsored the Halifax Chamber of Commerce State of the Province Address since its inception, and each year we highlight a topic of importance to Nova Scotians, the business community, and to us as an organization. Most recently, we focused on the Art of Prosperity—shining a light on the connection between arts, creativity, innovation and economic prosperity and making the point that smart business needs art.
In collaboration with the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, the foyer of the venue was transformed into an art gallery, showcasing creative works by some of Nova Scotia's most talented artists.
Members of the 500+ sold-out audience were encouraged to visit their local centres of art and each guest provided with passes to the Seeds Gallery at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and the Jean-Pierre Gauthier exhibit at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia.
