grammar ok?

Is there anything grammatical incorrect with saying:

My purpose is to inspire and to foster engaging relationships with art.

Not grammatically incorrect; but when "engaging" pre-modifies the object of the verb, it usually means "charming", whereas I think you mean "relationships that engage with art". ) MrP
