The art gallery is situated in downtown Edmonton and in a spectacular building. If you are an art lover then this is a great place to visit. They also have class for budding artists. The staff are friendly.

Good for a small gallery, plenty of local and Canadian based artists featured here. Several amazing exhibits of old European art, ancient East Indian art, and more. Loved the Nests at the End of The World exhibit & Dutch Old Masters.

Great place to go, lovely staff, super nice and informational. Quaint place to go, a bit more upscale than most as it's an art gallery although there is no dress code. Also the exhibits change frequently so you can see alot of different galleries. Always something new to see. Very welcoming environment.

One of the best art galleries in Canada gets a 4.3 rating?! The architecture of the building alone is a wonder of human achievement. A must visit for anyone traveling to the city and a gift to locals. ps. Coffee at the top floor is my favorite, warm and cozy nest of pleasure.

I have mixed feelings. The building itself is beautiful and I loved the William Kentridge exhibit, but the rest was quite vague and disappointing. I understand that art is interpreted differently by others but it was mediocre. Hardly any exhibits

Canada Day at the Art Gallery was free and the yearly memberships were half price. It was busier than anyone expected. My family enjoyed the art and exhibits. I'd like to see more art and there is plenty of room for expansion.looking forward to my next visit.

The gallery was supposed to be a fun and relaxing trip with family but was the complete opposite. The staff was rude and up-tight, especially to kids. All the signs say that the AGA is kid friendly but is obviously not. Besides the admission price is way over the top and is DEFINITELY not worth it. DO NOT GO HERE! YOU WILL REGRET IT!

Beautiful building, incredibly boring/dated collections and special stuff for kids etc not really up to par.. however theyre trying, the gift shop is really neat, and its really hard to sell classical art to the 20s and 30s crowd.
I look forward to future exhibitions of more interesting stuff than 18th and 19th century canadian artist pen/pencil art.

The side rooms with modern art pieces/interactive art is cool though, and the basement meeting/interactive space is excellent for potential future use.

Living in Montreal I found this place to be disappointing. The montreal fine arts museum is on a different level completely for the same price. The only exposition worth seeing was the painting of the different regions of Canada.

I wasn't sure what to expect from my first visit to this art gallery especially for a movie night. But, wow was Maude an amazing movie and the experience was great because of the friendly staff members. I'm looking forward to attending a few more events here.

If you are an art lover, this place is for you. The architecture of this building itself is enough for anyone to visit and admire this place. It has a little shop. Right opposite the city hall. Very close to LRT. Entry few is around 12dollars plus tax or something. Once in a lifetime visit is a must! I would give this place five stars because it is worth it!

Not worth visiting as the selection is very limited and features paintings/exhibitions of very poor quality. The building itself is impressive from the outside and that's about it. The gallery should be made free to the public. It is not close to worth the admission price they're charging for access.

Love the AGA, great place to relax and immerse yourself in another world. The exhibits are well curated but just wish there were more (especially fine art and sculpture). Always a fun place to take people of all ages.

The Art Gallery of Alberta is a great place to visit and see many different mediums of various artists on display. Not to mention the fact that the structure itself is artistic in its design. Has a good assortment of displays that I am sure will be pleasing to anyone who goes. Prices are fair and visit thier website for various cheeper times.

Beautiful building but not much to see inside. The expositions are so "sophisticated" and futuristic, that I found it hard to understand. Went there with kids and they found the place boring. I think it can be more diversified.

Edmonton has a beautiful art gallery from the outside and various different artists are always changing on the inside it's free every Tuesday and Thursday evening I believe. It really depends on what kind of art you like they had a photo show of one artist and they had some tribute to Wayne Gretzky going on. They also had some paintings and a show of another artist was interesting
