High Energy 30

The Art Gallery of St. Albert is pleased to once again present a popular exhibition that showcases the incredible artistic talent of students from St. Albert’s high schools. High Energy 30 opens in the Gallery’s main exhibition space on May 8.

For 30 years, the hard work and achievement of art students has been celebrated in the High Energy exhibition. Each May it takes over the gallery, filling the walls, plinths and windows with works created by artists in grade 10, 11 and 12. 

And this year will be no different. More than 100 students from four of St. Albert’s high schools will showcase more than 120 pieces.

But it wouldn’t be High Energy without the exciting annual Challenge Project. This year’s theme: Look Up and Marvel! Students have been asked to stretch their creativity skyward to create dramatic suspended artworks. This challenge will push the students’ technical skills, engineering and ingenuity, leaving viewers with a sense of wonder.

High Energy 30 runs until May 31.
