His longstanding association with the organization provided valuable institutional knowledge and a lasting connection to its history and evolution.

“On behalf of the Auditorium, the Board of Directors and staff, I would like to extend our sincere thanks to Trevor for his more than 30 years of service and dedication,” said Jason Perrier – President of the Board of Directors. “His years of experience and commitment to the Auditorium have been an important part of the organization's history. We are grateful for his contributions and wish him all the best as he begins this next chapter of his life.”

The Auditorium extends its appreciation to Trevor for his many years of service and his contribution to the cultural community. His retirement marks the end of a significant chapter in the Auditorium's history.

The Auditorium wishes Trevor a happy, healthy, and fulfilling retirement.
