CDAC BOARD OF DIRECTORS
"The Kootenays is my birth place and Cranbrook has been my home for 43 years. My first love is painting but I am inspired so many art forms. I am most inspired by nature with all its colour and splendour and I especially love to paint flowers, birds, and wildlife. There is no better place to feed my soul than in front of my easel brush in hand making an image come to to life with each stroke of paint."
Yvonne Vigne

Bill McColl

Karen Deibert

Jenny Humphrey
-Director at Large-
Little did Jenny know that her long time experience as a teacher, garden designer, community volunteer and lover of all things old and beautiful, would eventually lead to enough grant writing to bring the dream of a Cranbrook Art Gallery and art space to fruition. As her exploits in horticultural bungee jumping are becoming more limited due to elasticity issues she may have to continue trying to raise funds enough to spruce up the exterior of the Cranbrook Art Gallery and Art Space.
Josh Eimer
