Fine Arts faculty receive Canada's highest honours

 
Professor Christopher Jackson is among several Fine Arts faculty members have garnered some of Canada's highest honours in the past 18 months.

To congratulate the award recipients and commemorate their successes, Dean Catherine Wild invited them to participate in a photo shoot on April 8, 2011.

It was no small feat to gather such high-profile artists in one room at the same time, but the laureates were open, gracious and relaxed.

Please join Dean Wild in congratulating our Fine Arts professors on their recent honours recognizing their significant contributions to Canada's visual and performing arts.
