We will forever be grateful to George Hanson for bringing us on board 11 years ago to work with him on The Vancouver Island Economic Alliance State of the Island Economic Summit. This opportunity opened so many doors for us. All the best to you George. We look forward to working with Julie Sperber once she takes over.

Julie Sperber will take over from George Hanson, who has been president for 11 years

And… that’s a wrap for Lewis & Sears!

In our 13 years together we have been fortunate to have worked with a diverse client base. From producing major festivals, to planning conferences, to taking events virtual. Thank-you to all our clients who put their trust in us.

We aren’t done yet. We’ve decided to strike out on our own. And because events are in our blood, you can bet we will more than likely collaborate again on a project.

Here is how to reach us:

The intention was to run a hybrid Summit this year but we weren't quite ready to go back to live. VIEA has put together a great program and it isn't too late to register.

It’s been awhile since we’ve post! It’s because we’ve been doing things! Doing things like working on our master gardener certification! 🙌🌹
Congratulations Susan!

A tough decision but the right one to make at this time due to the uncertainty of the pandemic! We will gather again in 2022!
