Myriad Canada is working with the Royal Academy of Arts on this project, a registered UK charity whose mission is to aspire, in the words of its 18th-century founders, to “promote the arts of design”. It believes in learning through first-hand experience of the arts and is unique in its combination of practical work, exhibitions, and learning programmes.
Founded in 1768 under the patronage of King George III, the Royal Academy of Arts has played a pivotal role in shaping British art and culture. As the oldest independent art institution in the UK, it has been at the forefront of promoting and nurturing artistic talent for over 250 years. Its mission to elevate the practice of art was embodied by the establishment of its prestigious annual Summer Exhibition, which continues to provide a platform for emerging and established artists alike. The Royal Academy Schools, also part of its legacy, have trained some of the most influential artists in British history, including J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, and David Hockney. Additionally, the Academy has hosted landmark exhibitions, introducing the British public to global artistic movements and masters, from the Renaissance to modernism.
Myriad Canada’s role is to carry out charitable projects across the globe in accordance with its charitable purposes. We control and monitor the use of funds and the progress of charitable activities to ensure that donations made to Myriad Canada have the greatest impact in accordance with donors’ expressed wishes. As a member of the Myriad Alliance with offices in Canada, the US, Europe, Asia and Australia, Myriad Canada has a vast international network and extensive practical expertise.
