  • Sustainability Plan - August 2010
    Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery - Sustainability Plan - August 2010 Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery - Sustainability Plan – August 2010 Executive Summary The Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery (CCGG) has had 17 years (1992 to 2009 fiscal years) of sustainable operations. Funding for the gallery came from the City of Waterloo grant to cover the building costs, earned revenue from the Gift Shop and programs, private sector donations, and federal and provincial grants. This level of funding was sufficient just to maintain operations, not to ensure long term financial health. In recent years, there was simply not enough money to keep a development resource on staff. A combination of problems led to a significant looming deficit that became apparent in September 2009. In December 2009, an appeal to the City of Waterloo for emergency funding led the City to extend a 10-year loan to CCGG for $76,343 and provide a $20,000 grant to develop a Sustainability Plan. The project team conducted a detailed analysis of existing operations and held substantial consultations with stakeholders to determine what was going right with the Gallery and what could be done better. Additional public input was received via email by City of Waterloo councillors who shared key themes with the project team. The gallery has many stakeholders. Federal and provincial arts councils and artists from across Canada see CCGG as an important organization to foster the development of contemporary art in clay and glass. Visitors to our Region and local audiences appreciate the varied and interesting exhibits by contemporary artists. Our donors sponsor significant annual awards in ceramics (now in their tenth year) and, more recently, awards in glass.
