The panel
On May 18, the Conseil held a panel on Cultural Real Estate Financing at the Maison du Conseil. Moderated by Mélanie Courtois, consultant in cultural planning, and in the presence of Ms. Ericka Alneus, responsible for culture and heritage at the City of Montreal, the event was an opportunity to benefit from the sharing of experiences of actors that have set up such projects.
Thanks to the participants and our generous panelists: Madly Fuss (founding member, COOP MADAAM), Charles Grenier (technical resource group development officer, Atelier Habitation Montréal), Mariane Breton (Executive Director, OBORO), Geneviève Pichet (Director of Cultural Development, Service de la culture de la Ville de Montréal) and Julien Valmary (Director of Support and Strategic Initiatives, Conseil des arts de Montréal).
