2011 Winner Profile:

 

Our Arnold Edinborough award winner for 2011, Simon Foster, was nominated by the Framework Foundation, a charity he helped co-found. His foundation created the nation-wide Timeraiser events, a series of art auctions that ask patrons to bid their time rather than their money. To date they have raised over 93,000 volunteer hours for charities and have invested almost half a million dollars in the careers of emerging Canadian artists.
