Oh what a night! A gala evening of live jazz, bubbling champagne, hot bidding, and exceptional art, our 21st annual Art Auction will surely be a night to remember.  This event offers a unique opportunity to gather with friends, join in on the excitement of live bidding, and potentially go home with work by some of the country's hottest artists.

The Southern Alberta Art Gallery is grateful for the support of the artists, businesses and attendees who have made this fundraising event such a success. Cheers to another fabulous evening!  Read more.
 

 

 

HOUSE TOURS & TEA WRAP UP

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in House Tours & Tea this year, whether you attended the tour, volunteered, sponsored the event or shared your lovely house with us, you are much appreciated.  Thanks to your support our public programming will continue to flourish!

In particular we would like to thank all of our homeowners: Brad and Cait Pauls, Chris Stafford-Mayer and Andrea Ulmer, Alan and Karen Fritz, Rick and Lynette Harder, and all of the tenants at the Express Apartments - Nicole, Aaron, Lindsay, and Cody and Ramona.

We would also like to send a shout out to our presenting sponsors: Herman's Carpets, CADO Development, Express Coffee and Tea, and Type Three Homes.

Next we would like to thank our meal sponsors: The day would not have been complete without the lovely lunch, sponsored by LA Chefs. What would House Tours & Tea be without tea courtesy of Express Coffee and Tea? In addition, thanks to Edible Elegance for sponsoring dessert - the perfect sweet treats to end the meal.

Finally, this event would not have been possible without the helping hands of our volunteers - from pouring tea to helping set up and tear down to showing off lovely homes - you guys are absolute superstars!

 

 

 

ART & CULTURE TOUR PREVIEW

The Southern Alberta Art Gallery fell in love with the Big Apple on the first Art & Culture Tour in May 2010.  We've since led groups to Paris, Chicago, and Venice.  It's time for us to come full circle and head back to that legendary metropolis where it all began.

Tailor-made for the art lover, foodie, theatre-goer, and the just plain curious, this whirlwind week includes private tours in some of the world's finest art institutions with plenty of time left over to take in the many iconic sites for which the city is famous.

Join us May 2014 and immerse yourself in all that New York City has to offer.  More details to come!
