Indulge at the Cork and Canvas wine and art festival

  • 2012-02-01
The annual Cork and Canvas wine and art festival takes place throughout the month of March. This event is the major fundraiser for the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra.

Local business leaders have donated goods and services to the auctions to help raise money. Such generosity is always paid back with the extra publicity and marketing this event garners. Those who donate to or sponsor the event are mentioned in the event flyer. Printing Copies of this and sending it to your client base will either encourage them to attend the event or let them know you care about the community.
