An arts collective in Halifax says after several years of fundraising, the organization has raised enough money to purchase the building they call home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The RadStorm collective announced Saturday that a generous donation from local retired doctor Bob Fredrickson means they can purchase the building on Gottingen Street where they are based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fredrickson, who is 77, is well known as a pillar of the local queer community and for his work as a primary care doctor for hundreds of H-I-V\/AIDS patients in Halifax in the 1980s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fredrickson says after a long career, the donation is a way of saying thank you to the Halifax community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
