Return To The Falls

This year is the 10th anniversary of the creation of the Falls series at the Leighton Colony Banff Centre.
The theme was inspired by the memory of my late father H.G. Trevelyan, who was an avid mountaineer and resident of Lake Louise in the 1930s. Growing up in Calgary our family would visit the rockies frequently, hiking up the numerous falls in the Banff-Lake Louise area.

About

A Brief History

The Alberta Society of Artists (ASA) is a large part of Alberta’s visual arts history, through its members, its exhibitions and other initiatives. The Society founded in 1931, is the longest-standing society of juried professional artists in Alberta.

The Alberta Society of Artists was founded by a group of Calgary artists led by Alfred C. Leighton and incorporated in 1931. The objectives of the Society are to foster and promote the fine arts in Alberta. A.C. Leighton, the first president, was succeeded by a number of prominent Alberta artists including H.G. Glyde, Illingworth Kerr, Stan Perrot and Ken Sturdy.

Our Membership

The Society is a non-profit, Registered Charity that works with public venues to provide enhanced support for existing programs in education and exhibition. Members of the Society are juried in by their peers and provide professional recognition to the province’s artist community. Alberta artists may apply for Juried Membership during our annual drive.
There is an open membership category for Associate Members who may contribute to the Society in many ways. They may volunteer, apply for exhibitions and participate in board activities, including annual meetings wherein they have the right to vote. All Members receive a newsletter that has been in existence since the 1930’s.
Non-member artists may participate in most exhibition calls. Our group exhibitions are ‘blind’ juried by a revolving list of both juried ASA members and other invited professionals. We welcome and encourage non-member participation.
