Dalcon Visual Arts is a comfortable sized gallery that has something for everyone. And if it's not here, we can try to get it for you. We boast the fact that 99% of our art is local/Alberta made, and we are very proud of that fact. However, not just a gallery, we also print on paper, canvas & metal. Custom sizes available. Need frames, glass, dry mounting? We do all that as well. Call or email.

Being new to Alberta, I was recommended to visit this museum by someone that I met. I was very surprised by the world class level of the displays. Excellent museum; the displays and and quality of the autos and otherwise were outstanding. Very interesting, however the Airplane building was somewhat less interesting. I did a lot of reading there on the history of the air pioneers and the display aircraft were interesting, just less so from the main building. Definitely not a complaint, just a note. I am a senior and will make a comment there could be some more seating through the main building. It is a bit of a struggle when a person is not as fit and seating would help. To sum up, well worth going to and I think a visitor will be surprised at the interesting displays and rare exlhibits.

Immerse yourself in history at the Heritage Museum. Located in the heart of Wetaskiwin’s historic downtown, and with three floors of exhibits, we celebrate local history, heritage, and culture. You won’t be able to resist our one-of-kind Children’s Legacy Centre where kids of all ages engage their senses and use real museum artifacts. And that’s just the beginning! Uncover the dynamic heritage of Wetaskiwin City, County, and the Maskwacis Cree Four Nations through exhibits and interactive displays that span from the Big Bang until today. When you are done exploring the museum, take some time to access our Resource Library. Don’t forget to visit the Star Store Gifts & Wool Shop where 100% of proceeds support our programs and services. Honouring the history of our building and its general store roots you will find that perfect gift from knitting, spinning, weaving equipment & supplies to candy, toys, jewellery, and gifts, including items celebrating Canadian Indigenous Artists.
A fantastic place to while away the day and the gift store may just allow you to fill out your entire Christmas and yearly Birthday gift shopping in one day. <3

Watching Canadian history take flight. As a separate entity within the Reynolds-Alberta Museum in Wetaskiwin, AB, there is an admissions charge into the Reynolds-Alberta Museum. This charge includes admission to the aircraft hangar where CAHF's exhibitions are displayed.
