This year there are two recipients of $1,500, painter Lil Chrzan and the AUGUST Music Group.

It is because of the support of our dedicated community sponsors such as Opus Framing & Art Supplies in North Vancouver that the FANS Night Event is able to recognize and honour our brightest stars and assist individual artists and artistic activities on the North Shore. We are proud to have the continued support of Opus for the 2007 Event!
