An enormous honour was awarded to one of the owners of the Artistic Group this year: Kerri Brooks Richard won the Top Forty Under 40 from the Ottawa Business Journal. It was a wonderful reward for the sacrifices and struggles she has faced building the Artistic Group (with her husband) from out of the back of a pick up truck to the respected business it has become. She shares (and dedicates) this award with the entire team knowing full well people are the foundation of all good things. It is the teamwork and talent of the entire group that has created the company's success.
