We've given you plenty of ways to find the information you're looking for, including the menus at the left of the page and a handy sitemap.

Honoring Charles N. Brown

Charles N. Brown passed away on July 12, 2009, a few weeks after accepting our invitation to be a Guest of Honor and a few weeks before the official launch of Renovation at Anticipation in Montreal. It was the unanimous view of the Renovation committee that we should continue to honor his contribution by keeping him as one of our four official Guests of Honor.
