Friends of the Lowys and art lovers gathered May 9 at the Leonard and Bina Ellen Art Gallery to celebrate Fred and Mary Kay Lowy's support for the arts at Concordia during their tenure here. An endowment for educational and public programming activities at the Gallery was created in their names. Seen in the photo are Dr. Lowy, gallery director Michèle Thériault, Mary Kay Lowy, and Roy Heenan, an avid art collector and a friend of the Lowys. The campaign to create the Art Education Fund was spearheaded by Carolyn Renaud and was brught to fruition by both the Renaud and Ellen families.
