The senior high art students used their creativity to help Mrs. Sarvas display the travelling art exhibit from the Art Gallery of Alberta. Funded by the generosity of the Foundation for the Arts, the travelling art exhibit titled …bring a folding chair is described on the Art Gallery of Alberta website youraga.ca as “inspired by annual Black Canadian History month celebrations and recognizes the significant contributions Black Canadian artists make to Alberta. The artwork explores history, heritage and contemporary concerns, the artists in this exhibition ‘bring a folding chair’ to the table of Canadian society and the art scene in Alberta and, in sitting at the table, give voice to our common humanity.”
We are so honoured to host the artwork in our library and look forward to hosting another exhibit in the Spring.
