This month’s Making Art History presents Collage as an Art Medium

Collage is generally thought to have emerged as a prominent art form in the mid 20^th century. However, for this month’s class, we’ll do a little digging to trace some of the earlier artistic techniques, such as those of 10^th century Japan, which laid the groundwork for collage. We’ll also take a look at how artists in the Dada movement, such as Hannah Hoch, used collage as social commentary during WW2. Finally, the lecture portion of this class will engage with contemporary collage artists’ work and see how the medium has evolved in the digital era.

Registration covers both classes. All supplies included.

With special guest Lights

Bryan Adams returns to the Marchant Crane Centrium, Westerner Park on September 10, 2026.

Fresh off his acclaimed album Roll With The Punches, the multi-platinum singer-songwriter brings his signature high-energy live show back to Central Alberta. Known for powerful vocals, raw guitar riffs, and songs that span generations, Adams continues to prove why he remains one of the most dynamic performers in rock.

Fans can expect a setlist that blends new music with the timeless hits that have become part of Canada’s soundtrack, including Summer of ’69, Heaven, Run to You, and (Everything I Do) I Do It For You. It’s an arena show built for singing loud and sharing the moment.

Joining Bryan Adams is special guest Lights, bringing her genre-blending pop sound and electric stage presence to open the night.

This will be one of the biggest shows of the year at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Don’t miss your chance to be there.

The Flyathlon is a multi-sport event that integrates three activities: trail running, fishing, and craft beer. While many enjoy these activities independently, we have found over the years that putting them together is even more enjoyable. The overwhelming majority of funds raised by our Flyathletes through this event will be used for freshwater ecosystems. The Flyathlon is designed to be largely inclusive rather than truly competitive. The Flyathlon seeks to break down barriers through accessible events that create positive and fishy outdoor experiences and memories. It is our hope that through this type of exposure, we can create new outdoor advocates. The Flyathlon is designed specifically to promote responsible fishing practices and trail habits.

Join us on September 12th, 2026, for our first annual Flyathlon, a unique multi-sport event combining trail running, fishing and craft beer in Red Deer, Alberta. The race will start at Canada 150 place. Finishers and spectators will finish at the Troubled Monk, a local full craft beverage company. Total route distance is 5km.

Flyathletes will run with their rods and gear along the trail and decide when to stop to cast and hopefully catch a fish! Be sure to record species and estimated size for a chance to win prizes! Once you have successfully caught and released your fish and completed the route, you will finish the race with a nice, cold beverage.

Never fished before? No worries! Helpful "fish whisperers" volunteers will be available along the route to help you out. The race will begin at 1 pm MT. Registration is $100, and Flyathletes are required to fundraise a minimum of $250. Prizes will be provided to the top fundraisers. Other fun prizes to be given out to top course finishers, smallest fish caught, largest fish caught and more. But wait, there's more!

Flyathletes are provided a race tee, one drink ticket, food and a $50 tax receipt for signing up!

In summary:

Date: September 12th 2026

Location: Red Deer, AB. Canada 150 Place/Troubled Monk

Race distance: 5km

Start time: 1 pm MT

Registration fee: $100

Minimum Fundraising goal for Flyathletes: $250

Because this is a fundraising race, we have a requested minimum fundraising amount of $250 per flyathlete. Money raised will go towards on-the-ground projects.

You have walked past them. The bronze figures scattered through downtown are the Ghosts of Red Deer, one of the largest collections of life-size bronze sculpture in Canada. We willing to be most people who live here could not name a single one.

There is a hockey face-off, a firefighter, a railway worker arguing with a small dog over a pile of money, and a pig who became a local legend. Each Ghost stands for a person, a piece of folklore, or a way of life that shaped our city, created by local and provincial artists and commissioned through the Downtown Business Association.

You can find the Ghosts on your own any day of the week. What you get on this walk is the part that is not on the plaque: who these people actually were, why they earned a statue, and what was happening in Red Deer at the time.

Two hours, entirely on downtown sidewalks, at a pace that leaves room for questions and photos. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather and wear good walking shoes.

This tour is free to attend throughout the month of September as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days.

Join Trudy Golley for an intimate curator’s talk exploring her fifty-year art practice and the ideas behind Moving Forward.

Golley reflects on the works on view, the collaborative studio culture she built at Red Deer Polytechnic, and what it means to return to the practice she spent decades teaching to others.

Don’t miss the perfect chance to hear directly from the artist herself.

You have probably walked past the Capitol Theatre and the old train station a hundred times. This is the tour that tells you what happened inside them.

Join one of our staff for a guided walk through Remarkable Red Deer, our 4,800 square foot permanent history exhibition. You will hear about the Stephenson Hall Block, Red Deer’s first commercial building, the Club Cafe and its jukebox, and a handful of national firsts that were developed right here and that most locals have never heard of.

Bring a friend, ask the awkward questions, and expect a few stories that did not make it onto the exhibit panels. Our staff know this material well and the conversation usually goes wherever the group takes it.

Wednesday, September 16, 2026, starting at 2PM. Roughly an hour, mostly standing, with places to sit along the way.

This tour is free to attend throughout the month of September as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days.

The Red Deer Hospice Handbag Auction combines the convenience of online bidding with a refreshed in-person evening experience. Beginning September 2, browse and bid on a curated collection of handbags through our online auction.

There will be a reserved selection of bag for just those in attendance at the event.

Guided walking tours of downtown Red Deer. Historic homes, original businesses, public art, and the stories behind the spots you pass by regularly.

Most art tours are led by someone explaining what the artist was thinking. On this one, you can just ask an artist.

One of the artists who painted murals downtown leads this walk past more than fifty of them, with the oldest going back to the 1980s. Once you start looking, you notice the walls were chosen on purpose. Eye on the Ball is on the eye care centre. I Love My Hairdo is on a hairstyling college. Day & Night is on Day’s Music.

You will hear how a wall gets chosen, how a design goes from sketch to full building, what it is actually like to paint outdoors in Alberta, and what the story is behind the murals being viewed.

You can find these murals on your own with a map. What you get here is the part no plaque tells you: why that wall, why that image, and what you might not know about the artists.

Two hours, entirely on downtown sidewalks, at a pace that leaves room for questions and photos. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather and wear good walking shoes.

Fall 2026 Film 1: At The Place of Ghosts (Sk+te’kmujue’katik)

Bretten Hannam
Canada | 2025 | 89m | English, French, Mi’kmaw | VVS Films | 14A

Reel Movie Mondays opens this fall with a film that refuses to sit still in one genre.

Mise’l and Antle were inseparable as kids and have not spoken in years. When a malevolent spirit from their shared past starts closing in, Mise’l returns to their home community to warn his brother, and the two set out on foot and by canoe into the forest that gives the film its name: a place where time comes unfixed, where memory and history refuse to stay in the past, and where the brothers will have to face what happened to them if they want it to stop.

Two-spirit L’nu filmmaker Bretten Hannam spent roughly a decade making this, following their breakthrough feature Wildhood. It moves between horror, fantasy, and family drama without ever settling, and it is a genuine ghost story that is also about Mi’kmaw understandings of the spirit world, where the living are surrounded by ancestors rather than separated from them. Hannam has said the title is a real place name in the territory, closer in meaning to a place of spirits, and connected to the Milky Way.

It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and was named one of Canada’s Top 10. The score is by Jeremy Dutcher. The cinematography does a lot of the storytelling here, so this is one worth seeing on the big screen!

Please note: the film deals with childhood abuse and homophobic violence, and includes some frightening imagery.

Guided walking tours of downtown Red Deer. Historic homes, original businesses, public art, and the stories behind the spots you pass by regularly.

Most heritage walks show you the houses of people who could afford to be remembered. Parkvale is different. It was laid out in 1905 for working people, and the homes still standing there were built by the carpenters, railway workers, and shopkeepers who actually built Red Deer.

This guided walk takes you through one of the city’s oldest residential areas, just east of the museum, and out through parts of Coronation Park and the Waskasoo neighbourhood. You will hear about the architecture, the families who lived in these houses, and what they were doing in the years when Red Deer was still deciding what kind of place it was going to be. In late September the whole route is usually under fall canopy, which does not hurt.

This is the longest of our walking tours, roughly two hours at a steady pace with stops. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather, wear good walking shoes, and note that the route follows public sidewalks with some gentle grade changes.
