EDITOR’S PICK

Jasper may be a small mountain town with strong outoor vibes, but it also has an impressive art scene! Local and regional artists often showcase their talents at the Jasper Art Guild gallery (p 75). This gallery focuses on artists at the beginning of their career, meaning there are a lot of hidden gems to be found! At Mountain Galleries (p 76), seasoned artists capture the essence of the wild and sacred places around Jasper National Park. Find paintings, sculptures and traditional works from renowuned Canadian and First Nations’ artists. Learn from the pros when Mountain Galleries hosts their frequent Artist in Residence program. -KATE BARKER WINTER 2020/21
