Check Out Sherwood Park’s Art Scene

There’s always something exciting happening in and around Sherwood Park, from family activities to outdoor festivities, our city truly sets the stage for entertainment. In addition to this, Sherwood Park also has a dynamic Art Scene. Our exciting public gallery, Art Gallery @ 501 features exhibitions, art collections, as well as Education Programs.

I encourage all Sherwood Park residents to visit our local art gallery at least once, you can spend as much or as little time there as you would like, and enjoy the atmosphere. Below are some of Sonia’s Quick Tips when visiting your first Art Gallery:

• Don’t Be Shy. There is no need to feel intimidated or afraid, no one will expect you to answer art-related questions or give your opinion about the artwork or brush strokes used.
• Check Before Taking Pictures. While some exhibitions are more interactive and casual, other exhibitors have a zero camera policy. It never hurts to double-check the photography rules.
• Keep An Open Mind. You don’t have to work as a professional Artist to enjoy your exhibition. When you attend keep an open mind and know that it’s okay if you don’t like or understand something.

Going to an art gallery is a great way to relax, meet other Sherwood Park residents, be inspired, and even shop! For more information on Art Gallery @ 501 visit their website.
