“w.a.v.e.s. is the best thing I’ve seen in the Windsor Sculpture Park.” “Arts, culture and heritage get people outside, walking / cycling and interacting and sharing... it can lead to stronger ties in the community.” “The ACHF enabled me to do part of something others told me would be impossible to do.” “The Chimczuk Museum is amazing... an awesome addition to Windsor’s history.” “I love the architecture in every room at Willistead... we have to keep this history alive.” “I’m over the moon... thank you for your work with the ACHF... It is so important to our group and

  • ur community.”
