Because of his love for Kin …

Dave has made countless artistic

contributions to our Association…

In 1990, at the 70th Anniversary of Kin, he honoured Founder Hal Rogers with a

commemorative painting

And now he wants to do something very special to

honour the sacrifices made by the Canadian

fallen heroes of the Afghanistan mission

erected at a new studio at Kin Canada Headquarters in Cambridge,

Ontario
