Thank you to all who attended and supported the IISD-ELA gala reception and exclusive performance of The Watershed on March 14, 2017.
There was an audible buzz at the reception with many former and current IISD-ELA staff and students in attendance. Guests enjoyed an array of delicious hors d'oeuvres catered by Bergmann’s on Lombard, followed by an engaging performance of The Watershed.
Playwright Annabel Soutar was also in attendance, and her personal journey to tell the story of the fight to save the research facility touched many in the audience who had a personal connection to IISD-ELA. We were delighted that she could join us.
Proceeds from this event will help continue the important work of IISD-ELA, improve infrastructure, and support scientists and students.
Our sincere thank you to our generous sponsors and supporters of this fundraising event. Please enjoy some images from the event below.
