The Works Art & Design Festival in Edmonton
The centre will feature Owning It, a collection by the Alberta Artists with Brain Injury Society (AABIS). The society started at the Glenrose Hospital in 2003, as patients recovering from traumatic brain injuries found they liked art as a form of therapy so much that they wanted to continue after leaving the Glenrose. Catch the display Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. till 2 p.m., Thursday from 4:30 p.m. till 8 p.m. and Saturday from 1 p.m. till 3 p.m. (closed Canada Day).
