Your Museum : with Lorna, E.D. Welcome Back! We’re pleased to re-launch our newsletter with a new look and new features. The MAGnet is designed to connect you with the Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery. Each issue will highlight the exciting things happening at the MAG and lots of things to see and do.

2013 was an outstanding year at the MAG. Our new history exhibition, Remarkable Red Deer: Stories from the Heart of the Parkland, opened just one year ago. Visitor response is very positive. In upcoming weeks we will install more artifacts and program activities designed to enhance your museum experience.

We are responding to a younger and more diverse audience. I’m pleased to say that our website will become mobile-friendly in the near future, and soon website visitors will be able to see images and learn more about the some of the wonderful items in our collections.

There are many other changes at the MAG. We’ve said farewell to some retirees and have welcomed new faces to the organization.
