Pacific Baroque Orchestra Issues Emergency Appeal

Ballet BC isn’t the only Vancouver arts organization in serious financial trouble. “Last week, the 11-member Pacific Baroque Orchestra sent out a letter to supporters asking for help in combating a potential C$80,000 deficit on its C$300,000 annual budget this year. The group has been hit with a series of blows: in 2007, both its artistic director, Marc Destrubé, and its general manager, Tom Durrie, resigned.”
