本會宗旨 Our Mission

本會創立於1997年，由幾位愛好中國書畫之退休人士雅興而自組為「蘭誼書畫學會」 ， 藉此吸納更多書畫朋友共同學習，互相砌磋，結翰墨良緣， 讓中國幾千年之詩書畫篆等國粹，能在中國以外的土地，繼續發揚光大，薪火相傳。

Back in 1997,  a handful of Chinese Brush Art lovers enjoyed meeting regularly in downtown Toronto to share their painting and calligraphy  as a show and tell. They informally called themselves the "Lan Yee" Club. (This name has a historical attachment referring to centuries back in China when a group of literati also met in friendship to do art, share art and enjoy art.)  This small group did attract additional members. They then decided to work harder with the greater objective of promoting Chinese Brush Art in Toronto so that Chinese culture can continue to spread, grow and be passed on even outside China.
This becomes our Association's formal Mission : to share, promote and spread Chinese Brush Art to all.

改名承繼 Change of Name

發展下, 會員日漸眾多，理事局認為本會有註册必要， 遂於2011年4月向加拿大安省政府登記註册為一非牟利團體，並改名為「加拿大安省中國書畫學會」。 透過羣策羣力，推廣書畫藝術，吸納同好，繼續為廣大書畫愛好者服務。

​With membership growing fast, the Management took the organization to a higher level. In April 2011 we registered with Ontario Incorporation as a non-profit body under the new name <Chinese Brush Art Association of Canada>. As a body corporate, the group enjoys the increased strength of the team and capably promote Chinese brush art.
