Obituary for Barbara Anderson Huget

Barbara Anderson Huget, aged 66, passed away suddenly on November 24, 2024, in Oakville, Ontario. She is predeceased by her parents, Lesley and Warren Huget; her brother, Richard; and her ex-husband, Uwe Meyer. She is survived by her sister, Deborah Sunter (née Huget), nephews Daniel (Elena) and David (Mayu), and her niece Jessica (Mariom).

Born and raised in Ottawa, Barb moved to Toronto to pursue her studies and career. She earned a BFA in Theatre from York University and embarked on an impressive and diverse career in the GTA and Southern Ontario in theatre, music, and the visual arts.

Barb began her career at the Blyth and Muskoka Festivals and, at the age of 26, became the General Manager of Tapestry Music Theatre (now Tapestry Opera). She later served as General Manager of Gryphon Theatre and as a Touring Consultant for the Ontario Arts Council. In the late 1990s, she became the Executive Director of Canadian Artists Representation, Ontario, followed by a role as Executive Director for Theatre Ontario.

In 2001, Barb shifted her focus to the visual arts, studying drawing and painting at OCAD and in Florence, Italy. She returned to teach Arts Administration and Art History at Humber College while earning a Master’s Degree in Education.

In more recent years, Barb took on management roles for the Lowville Festival, Guelph JazzFest, and Gravenhurst, and for the past five years, she was a highly valued Manager of One Burlington.

Barb was a loving, generous, and talented woman who will be deeply missed by her family and friends. Donations in her memory may be made to the Humane Society.
