Art Depart

We admit we’ve making regular trips to Edmonton since the opening of
Anthropologie, but now theres another A-gamer to make the trip to E-town
for.

More than four years in the works, the new Art
Gallery of Alberta opens this Sunday. The impressive
85,000-square-foot space now houses double the exhibition area from the
previous gallery, an education centre, restaurant, theatre and outdoor
terrace. The inaugural exhibits run until the end of May and include
works by renowned artists Edgar Degas, Franciso Goya and Yousuf Karsh.

This time, the trip is all about art.
