ASA Gallery, "The Big Leap," 2020
GRAND OPENING September 3rd, 2020, 1 - 4pm
The Alberta Society of Artists is pleased to present The Big Leap, the inaugural exhibition of the new ASA Gallery. The exhibition features the artwork of the Society’s juried members.
BACKGROUND
In early March, the Covid pandemic shut down our ASA office and its tiny gallery space. Three months later when the opportunity arose for us to move (with no additional cost) into a large ‘abandoned’ gallery space in the same facility, we leapt at the chance!
The new ASA Gallery complies with Alberta Health with its spacious 1740 sq ft footprint and 34 ft ceiling height. We can offer exhibitions, lectures and workshops while respecting health restrictions. A massive common room just outside the gallery doors holds any overflow.
We will continue to provide opportunity for engagement by both emerging artists and the public. Volunteer-run, we are encouraged by how many people want to engage and assist at our gallery. We have found that Covid "released" talented people who then joined our volunteer base. More than ever, the Alberta Community has reached out and lent a hand.
