About Me
I ran unsuccessfully for Vancouver City Council with the NPA in the 2008 election with Peter Ladner and in 2011 with Suzanne Anton.
Sandwiched in between was a great deal of civic involvement including service on the boards of the Vancouver Recital Society as VP & Chair of the Futures Committee; the Langley Community Music School as chair of Strategic Task Force; False Creek Residents Association as Chair of Membership; the Board of Trade membership marketing committee; and a fundraising committee for Vancouver’s extraordinary Borealis String Quartet.
I also served as VP of the NPA Board in addition to Outreach chair and Caucus Support, and served as a policy advisor for Councillor Anton.
Born in Vancouver, I spent my life in the arts, first as a violinist that played professionally in the Victoria Symphony, later as a manager and eventually a VP with Columbia Artists in New York. I lived there for twenty years before moving back home to marry my life-partner Tom.
Together we founded and now run ArtistManager.Net – Talented Websites for The Most Talented People in the World – with more than 100 clients in North America and Europe.





I vote for Sean Bickerton for City Council! You’re an inspiration Sean. Happy to see this is moving along.
Sean is a honest and compassionate person who will be a great asset to Vancouver.
We are very proud of you!
Go, Sean, go!
I’m sure you will be a great addition to the NPA team and, after the November election, to the great city of Vancouver.
Sean:
So glad to have you back on the West Coast!
we think sean is a very capable person.
Hi Sean,

It is calle JOY of MUSIC

This has been a labour of love for me, and it is very exciting! I hope you can be a part of it by attending the concert, and joining us afterwards to celebrate my 50th.
Look forward to hearing from you!

Saw you interviewed on noon-news Global today and did a double take – to jog your memory – UBC School of Music, late 70s or early 80s – I was the administrator – we shared an office for a while – thinking you were in NY all this time – glad to see you are back and successful here in the Lower Mainland. would love to hear from you – if you remember me!
))) perhaps you remember Isabel?
If you are going to run for City Council – are you planning to run for Vision or NPA?
Hi Camille,
I appreciate you asking, and hope to announce my plans in April. As to party, I don’t believe in ideology, which is why I’ve been a member of the Non-Partisan Association since September of 2008, and I remain a member in good standing today.
