MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR AND CEO
2011-12 was a year of change! It began with David MacKenzie stepping down from the
position of CEO after a very successful tenure at the helm. David’s presence in the building is
surely missed by all, and his contributions to the growth of our organization will be recognized
for many years to come. Under his leadership Confederation Centre of the Arts (CCOA)
enhanced its year-round offerings and reached new heights in its programming.
The challenge now is to carry this momentum on to the rest of our great country. Our
new CEO looks forward to holding this torch high, and ensuring CCOA’s continued
growth and success as a vital institution for all Canadians.
Essential to this progress is CCOA’s home here on the Island. Prince Edward Island has
cherished almost half a century with CCOA at its heart. CCOA has evolved considerably
over fifty years to become a pivotal and highly respected institution. Communities
have built up around every aspect of this national landmark, its heritage, and its
high-calibre programming. In very important ways it defines P.E.I. as P.E.I. defines it.
2
Islanders certainly treasure this relationship but must spread the word to
the rest of the country and continue to celebrate the special heritage this
institution carries. As Canada’s only national memorial to the Fathers of
Confederation and the birthplace of the nation, CCOA gives us great reason
to be loud and proud about the honour we all hold in our hands.
Nationally, we are embarking on a great journey, a journey to re-educate all
Canadians about who we are and why they should embrace Confederation
Centre of the Arts as their very own. Every single person in the country
holds a stake in CCOA’s ongoing activities yet only a few million Canadians
are aware that it exists, and only a small percentage of that number
recognize our national mandate. We intend to work aggressively to change
that fact and to rejoice in CCOA’s important role as a national cultural link
to our founding fathers.
We have already begun these national efforts and new partners and
innovative projects are developing across the country. In 2011-12, with
our Chairman Wayne Hambly and members of senior manangement Jodi
Zver and Mike Cochrane, we held dozens of meetings with the office of
Canadian Heritage in Ottawa, and with Ministers and Senators. In addition,
our CEO had the privilege of speaking to the House of Commons Standing
Committee on Heritage about the importance of Confederation Centre of
the Arts.
ge
Exciting changes are happening at all levels, and in all divisions of CCOA.
Each department is immensely proud of the work we are doing and we
have outlined within this report the details of their last fiscal year. The
next twelve months offer us a wealth of opportunities and the building
is abuzz with energy and new ideas.
It is an honour to lead such an amazing organization. With such committed
management and staff here at CCOA, and such dedicated local and
national board members, governors, and liaison, we can only imagine
great things for the year ahead.

ANNE OF GREEN GABLES–THE MUSICAL™
SEPARATE BEDS
The 47th season of Anne of Green Gables–The Musical™ hit the
Homburg Stage with a new life, a new face and an appeal that
delighted audiences. Directed by Marcia Kash with set design
by Doug Paraschuk, choreography by Mike Jackson and lighting
design by Leigh Ann Vardy, the ‘reimagined’ production was
met with critical acclaim and ticket sales were higher than the
previous year.
Our own associate artistic director Wade Lynch directed
Separate Beds – a Canadian work that has gained much success
worldwide. Featuring Island performer Catherine O’Brien and
well-known actor Gordon Gammie, this comedy was enjoyed by
many and ticket sales were strong.
THE FULL MONTY
The Full Monty opened on June 18 to a standing ovation. The
set, designed by Doug Paraschuk and lighting design by Renee
Brode provided a powerful statement. This production received
many complimentary comments, however ticket sales were not
as high as expected.
COME- ALL-YE
Islanders and visitors alike loved this production with tickets
selling out as the summer went on. The authentic Island
experience of Come-All-Ye, directed by Wade Lynch, featured
the talents of Islanders Patrick Ledwell, John Connolly, Ashley
Condon, Caroline Bernard, Mark Haines and Chas Guay. This
production was able to show what P.E.I. is like, beyond the
travel brochures — the passion, musicality and unique sense of
humour that distinguishes Islanders from all others.
B U D DY: T H E B U D DY H O L LY S TO RY
This remount production was a big hit for its second time
around after connecting with audiences in 2010. Ticket sales
were good and the show met its projected sales target.

OPERATIONS
CCOA completed a capital renovation of the L.W. MacEachern outdoor plaza. The existing staircase was taken out
and replaced and a garden planter bed was added. A flowing fountain feature that is backlit at night was also
embedded beside this staircase. The intent is to make this area more appealing to pedestrian traffic and soften
the concrete facade on the building’s exterior.
CCOA is also moving towards becoming greener through replacement of lighting around the building with new
energy-efficient LED technology. As a result, CCOA will see a reduction in its kilowatt usage by two thirds.
Mavor’s has undergone a complete transformation with a new look, new menu and new chef. Stephen Wilson is the
new executive chef and Kim Jesty the new restaurant manager and both are leading Mavor’s towards a whole new
level. Diners can now enjoy a chic interior in a rejuvenated Mavor’s that features extended seating and a stunning
portrait exhibition of local Islanders by P.E.I.’s Brian Burke.

OF THE ARTS
ARTS EDUC ATION
education
For the first time ever, Confederation
Centre of the Arts presented an
aboriginal young company with
The Talking Stick. Directed by Cathy Elliot,
who herself is Mi’kmaq, The Talking Stick brought
First Peoples’ legends and traditions to life combining traditional
language and customs with modern technology. It was an honour
to present excerpts of this production to Prince William and the
Duchess of Cambridge, during their visit to Prince Edward Island.
It has been a wonderful, challenging year in the Department of
Arts Education. The “halls were alive with the sound of music,”
and laughter, and general camaraderie as more and more people
connected to their creative spirit through the programs of CCOA
Summer camps, gallery programming, and dance umbrella all
experienced successful seasons, offering participants the opportunity to experience the joy of creation supported by technically
correct training.
The Arts Discovery Days program drew more than 700 students to
CCOA, to spend the day exploring different ways of learning about
areas of their Social Studies curriculum. We continue to be moved
by the impact this program has on its participants. They come
from points east as far as Souris and west as far as Miscouche,
and all communities in between. Many of them have never before
visited CCOA, or any arts centre. They are engaged from the
moment they arrive until they get back on the bus, ready to nap
on the drive back to their schools. For all staff here at CCOA it is
also a very positive experience as we witness their enthusiasm
and joy in discovering the world of their imagination.
The 2011-12 season was the inaugural year of our newest venture,
the School of Performing Arts (in partnership with Holland
College). After a very successful run of The Sound of Music, the
capstone project for second term was a student showcase, held at
The Guild. This production featured scenes, monologues, dance
performance and music, music, music… all reflecting the theme
of Love and the Lack Thereof.
CHORAL MUSIC
The Choral Programme at CCOA has enjoyed an extremely
active year, with the Confederation Singers and the Youth Chorus.
The highlight of the year was the Youth Chorus Tour to Rome and
Naples, Italy in April 2011 where the Chorus sang at St. Peter’s
Basilica in The Vatican, Santa Susanna Church, and All Saints,
Rome. A total of 50 people were involved in this international tour,
including parent chaperones, staff, and choir.
In addition to various community singing engagements, the Youth
Chorus also presented the annual Voices of Spring and Sing Noel
concerts. The Confederation Singers were also very busy and
presented Rossini’s magnificent Messe Solennelle and the
complete Handel’s Messiah.
Both choirs presented In Remembrance, a moving choral tribute
to our war veterans.

CONFEDERATION CENTRE ART GALLERY
The following statistics provide a snapshot of programs and attendance:
26,922 visitors including 8,470 guests in educational programs such as: 174
tours of exhibitions for school classes, 40 exhibition tours for adults, 71
classes/workshops including nine weeks of youth art camps in the Schurman
Family Studio (SFS), 28 birthday parties in the SFS, and 66 public programs
like ArtTalks, Family Sunday, or Artist Trading Cards.
Outreach activities like Art in the Open, an outdoor art festival undertaken
in collaboration with several community partners and funding from the City
of Charlottetown, together with three touring exhibitions, reached another
11,797 – meaning our audience was 38,719 total (not including the many
thousands of online visitors each month to our two virtual exhibitions).
We received several major donations of art including a gift of 15 photographs
from Toronto-based artist Edward Burtynsky, a very large painting entitled
Tiepolo Project, 2010, donated by the artist Jinny Yu, and senior Canadian
artist John Greer’s donation of his large bronze sculpture Crow Feather, 1999.
Other works of art were donated by Rod Black, François Constantin, Michel
Constantin, Gerard Jennings, Huguette LeBlanc Gagnon, Claudia Mannion,
Guy Gagnon, Lucille Hogg, Judith Scherer Burke, and Terry White.
Purchase highlights include Andrea Mortson’s painting You are Loved, 2010,
(on loan to the Oh Canada exhibition at the Massachusetts Museum of
Contemporary Art) and Gerald Beaulieu's sculpture, Pasture, 2008.
The 21 exhibitions presented included 1,007 individual works of art, ranging
from complex installations featuring an observation beehive, Aganetha Dyck:
Guest Workers (sponsored by Honibe), to the creation of a bar filled with
hockey or beer-themed art and memorabilia as The King and I: Hockey Bar,
to Kim Morgan’s Range Light, Borden-Carleton, PEI, a mammoth cast latex
sculpture that re-imagined a modest navigational building into a potent
symbol of community change and transition.
Solo emerging artist shows supported by RBC Foundation featured recent
work by painters John Dohe and Damien Worth. The thematic group exhibition, Rural Readymade, explored the ways contemporary artists examine the
boundary between what is, and what is not, art. Organized by the gallery, this
show circulated to the Kenderdine Art Gallery, Saskatoon, and is slated to
show at the University of Lethbridge Art Gallery.
We published several exhibition brochures, two videos, and a book — Elaine
Harrison: I am an island that dreams — was co-published with Acorn Press to
accompany an exhibition of the same title.
The multi-year funding support of the Canada Council for the Arts, to advance
knowledge and enjoyment of contemporary visual art, through the Assistance
to Art Museums and Public Galleries program, is gratefully acknowledged.

FRENCH PROGRAMMING
ARTS EDU C ATI O N AND V I SUAL ARTS
In 2011-12, Confederation Centre of the Arts continued to offer
French guided tours of CCOA and the Art Gallery, and customized
tours to P.E.I. French and French immersion schools. CCOA offered
its Arts Discovery Days program in French for the third year, with
Canadian Parents for French as special funding partners, and with
the support of the Department of Education. In the spring of 2012,
approximately 100 Grade 4 students, teachers and chaperones
attended this very popular program. Numbers were down this year
because of budget cuts imposed by the Eastern School Board. CCOA
has had preliminary meetings with officials from the Department of
Education regarding the development of a Grade 8 French Arts
Discovery Days program, a program that is already offered to English
students.
O N S TAGE
The Charlottetown Festival 2011 adopted a different format for the
delivery of its French component by including 20% French content in
Come-All-Ye, the new show created and presented at The Mack that
LIGHTHOUSE
featured many well-known musicians and storytellers from the
Island, including Caroline Bernard. In the fall, CCOA, in partnership
with Carrefour de l’Isle-Saint-Jean and the Francofolies de
Charlottetown, presented Women and Song Cabaret Night featuring
singer-songwriters Ginette, Marie-Philippe Bergeron and Mont
Carmel’s Angie Arsenault. Over the course of the winter, The Centre
created a partnership with the Department of Education to present
two concerts featuring Lennie Gallant. Approximately 1,500 students
attended these performances.
BILINGUALISM–As a national institution CCOA is proud to
offer its services in both official languages. As the national
memorial built to commemorate the Fathers of Confederation
and the founding of our nation, CCOA strives to continue
building on the use of our two official languages. This duality
frames the identity of our country and the identity of this
organization.

SOBEYS LIVE @ THE CENTRE
The 2011-12 Sobeys Live @ the Centre marked the 10-year anniversary of the return to
year-round programming to CCOA. The past season saw 11 different programs on our stages for
a total of 19 performances. Again in 2011-12 we had something for everyone: children’s
programming, dance, live music, and had a total of 6,400 in attendance amounting to more
than $127,000 in ticket sales.
THE BACKYARDIGANS
Again this year children’s entertainment was a big hit with over 900 paid in attendance for
the always popular children’s television entertainment, The Backyardigans. Entertainment was
organized for corporate Christmas parties at The Mack and was met with much success due to
the incredible talent of the Celtic Ladies performing eight shows over a four week period.
Due to the success of this past season we will be keeping this format with fewer performances
from past years and an increase in rentals. We continue to hear that Sobeys Live @ the Centre
is very important to Islanders and they look forward to seeing the planned performances when
they are announced each fall.

DEVELOPMENT
GET CENTRE’D is the new direction of the membership program
that was designed to put names to the faces of our members.
Through a direct mail campaign, an online video, and additional marketing promotions we were able to meet and exceed
our goal of $10,000 in new membership revenue. Our new
members were attracted to the friendly faces and informative
content of the brochure, as well as by the new and exciting
benefits that were designed to enhance the members
experience throughout CCOA.

On December 1, 2011, the CCOA Foundation submitted its
annual application to Canadian Heritage’s Canada Cultural
Investment Fund to match $315,502 received in endowment
contributions between December 1, 2010 and November 30,
2011. In March 2012, Canadian Heritage notified us of an
approved matching amount of $258,262 which translates
into 81 cents/$1. Last year we received a match of 71
cents/$1.
These matching funds will go to the respective endowment
funds to which the original contributions were made,
namely: The Susan Fitzpatrick Fund for Youth Programming,
The Frank and Daphne MacKinnon Endowment Fund, The
Frederic S. and Ogden Martin Endowment Fund, The Sobey
