We are happy to assist you with the preparations of your group’s visit to our current and upcoming exhibitions and invite you to explore them through our guided, self-guided or art retreat programs. Tours are free of charge & 1.5 Hr Art Programs which include a hands-on take home art project are FREE of charge thanks to ATB Financial.
This program includes a facilitated tour with a take-home hands-on art project inspired by current exhibitions. Hands-on art projects emphasize a contemporary mixed-media approach. The projects are age-appropriate and based on the principles and elements of art and design. These experiential components allow for student’s own experience of the exhibitions to be enhanced and grounded.
Self-guided tours are available during our regular opening hours. Visiting with your group is free. If you are an organization planning to visit the Art Gallery with your group of 9 visitors or more, please contact us 2 – 4 weeks prior to your visit.
Enjoy the day with your students at the Art Gallery. This custom-designed educational initiative allows for an extraordinary experience of making and sharing art in a nurturing environment. Engagement with our current exhibitions and take-home hands-on art projects are included as suitable to your group.
Duration: Half – Full day, as agreed with Art Gallery of Grande Prairie’s Curator of Learning.
Includes all art material and facilitation. Cost – 60$ per group, Max. 20 students per group

We are pleased to offer a new series called Meet the Artist. With this resource, you will be able to take your group on a virtual tour with the artist, through their exhibition at the Art Gallery of Grande Prairie. We have created this program for you to be able to ‘visit’ the Art Gallery in the comfort of your classroom, home or facility. After your group has watched the virtual exhibition tour, you can facilitate the art project inspired by the artist’s exhibition with our FREE art activity kits.
Please email sabine@aggp.ca or call 780-357-7487 to coordinate the delivery of the FREE art activity kits to your location with you.
