Explore Edmonton’s arts and culture this weekend
The Alberta Craft Council showcases and sells the work of Alberta craft artisans. The lower level functions as a gallery, with 15 to 20 different exhibits each year. The upper level is a shop, selling clay, wood, stone, metal, glass and fibre crafts. It’s hard to leave empty-handed. One of my favourite purchases is a mug set by potter Kalika Bowlby. The Alberta Craft Council is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Unique gifts for the Edmontonian who has it all
They sell awesome stuff, such as sculptures from Concrete Cat, an amazing local company that makes everything out of concrete. Their sculptures are often based on everyday objects but they make them into works of art. Get the sports fanatic in your life the Beau sculpture, a concrete baseball bat with a solid walnut block stand. Or, if you have a friend who loves photography, Concrete Cat makes concrete cameras that are stunning beyond words. Basically, anything from Concrete Cat will be unlike anything your friends or family already own, so gift away.
