Congratulations to OSAC newest Life Members John & Rosalie Daisley from the Hudson Bay Allied Arts Council.
Longtime arts supporters John and Rosalie Daisley of the Hudson Bay Allied Arts Council have been recognized with Life Membership in the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC) for their remarkable contributions to the arts in their community and across the province.
For more than two decades, John and Rosalie have been at the heart of Hudson Bay’s performing arts scene — organizing concerts, welcoming touring artists into their home, and helping bring world-class performances to their small-town stage. Rosalie served as treasurer and chairperson for the Council during her 22-year tenure, while John coordinated over 75 concerts during his 20 years as Performing Arts Representative. Together, their passion, teamwork, and warm hospitality have left a lasting impact on artists and audiences alike.
