Selected Comments on AGA TREX Exhibitions from the 2012/2013 Season: Red Brick Arts Centre (Edson) - Linda Wright re: Our Wilderness is Wisdom The Interpretive Kit was excellent and useful to our venue. At times our aboriginal visitors became quite emotional. The AFA Travelling Exhibition Program has been fantastic - great shows that are accessible to lots of small venues. Selected comments from exhibition visitors: - Absolutely lovely! - Awesome - Preservation of the land and that it is the responsibility of us all - I thank these artists for their insights - Awesome collection. Excited to see Janvier! - It tells me (the art) how crucial it is to take care of Mother Earth and our precious water - thank you - Excellent expression Onoway Elementary School (Onoway) - Lori Bell re: A Room with a View The booking procedure was very efficient and both the Booking Catalogue and Interpretive Kit were Excellent. Teachers appreciated the activities and curriculum links and the exhibition provided an opportunity for students to experience a variety of art. For many this was a first time experience. This was our first time and we look forward to more in the future. Seamless! Onoway Public Library (Onoway) - Kelly Huxley re: Maskwacis (Bear Hills) Selected comments from exhibition visitors: - Brilliant, gifted and inspiring art.

Love the bead work! Grasmere School (Alberta Beach) - Amy Ouderkirk re: A Room with a View The Booking Catalogue and Interpretive Kit were both excellent. We used the suggested activities and students enjoyed the scavenger hunt. Students and staff loved how each piece was so different. The AFA Travelling Exhibition Program is Excellent! Thank you. Barrhead Public Library (Barrhead) - Elaine Dickie re: Down on the Farm The Booking Catalogue and Interpretive Kit were both excellent. We used the education component for elementary school students browsing the exhibit and gave the website information to members of the Barrhead Photography Club. In our rural community this exhibit was ‘close to home’, and enjoyed by all ages. This exhibition received high praise from the many folks that viewed it. The three photographers each had very distinct styles and one cannot help but compare and contrast their styles and their subjects: a most delicious experience. The Visiting Artist Program presentation given by Dawn Saunders Dahl was Excellent. Dawn was great with the class, the participants were pushed out of their painting comfort zone, taught a new technique and the results of the workshop were amazing.... Ardmore School (Ardmore) - Evelyn Bourbeau re: La Vie Fantastique The Interpretive Kit was useful to our venue. We used the Reading Pictures program and the Visual Learning worksheet. The exhibition was well received by visitors. Some felt it was ‘dark’ but it made them think!! Both the Booking Catalogue and the Interpretive Kit were excellent and the AFA Travelling Exhibition Program is also excellent - a 10+ Selected comments from exhibition visitors: - Very different. Relatable. Fun and creepy (no offense) - Unique and beautiful - Creative! Some are dark and gloomy...but cool! H.E. Bourgoin Middle School (Bonnyville) - Cheryl Edwards re: Urban Animals The curator statement and artist bio were very useful and we loved this exhibition! Very colorful, happy, simple, enjoyable.... The AFA Travelling Exhibition Program is excellent.
