We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of our esteemed colleague Dr. Ahmed Ghazali who tragically died in a car accident in Morocco on July 27th. Ahmed collaborated with Lord on multiple cultural projects since 2017, with his expertise and dedication significantly contributing to our work across continents. His loss is profoundly felt by all who had the privilege of working with him. Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and colleagues around the world.

“The Arts Council believes that investing in arts and culture will uplift the entire Rockford region by telling Rockford’s many stories.

The Arts Council consulted with Lord Cultural Resources whose mission statement is ‘making the world a better place through culture’, and that starts from within their team. We’ve had the honor of working with a powerhouse team from Lord. They’ve impressed city officials, community leaders, and Rockford Region residents with their knowledge of Rockford’s history and their Rockford current events proficiency — I hear about regional wins from the Lord team before they hit our media’s websites.”

Please join us in celebrating  Jamie Bennett, Lord Thought Leader and Associate, as he takes on his latest project: interim co-CEO of Americans for the Arts (AFTA), alongside Suzy Delvalle.

We’re thrilled to share that The Leaf has been recognized with a National Award of Excellence from the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects. We worked with Assiniboine Park from 2015-2023 to help plan this new horticultural attraction in Winnipeg.

We hope your month is full of stories that celebrate and honour the extraordinary women who are uplifting, inspiring and transforming the world around them.

As a woman-led cultural planning firm, we wanted to highlight some women we’ve worked with who are making the world a better place through culture, so we asked our team for their picks.

We got back some incredible recommendations, too. Here are just some of the standout nominees who are shifting the cultural landscape. 

At Lord Cultural Resources, we honour Black histories, heritage and futures 365 days a year.
