Travelling Exhibition Program (TREX)
The Alberta Foundation for the Arts (AFA) has supported a provincial travelling exhibition program since 1981.The mandate of the AFA Travelling Exhibition Program is to provide every Albertan with the opportunity to enjoy visual art exhibitions in their community.
Three regional galleries and one arts organization coordinate the program for the AFA:
- Northwest Alberta: The Prairie Art Gallery
- Northeast and North Central Alberta: The Art Gallery of Alberta
- Southwest Alberta: The Alberta Society of Artists
- Southeast Alberta: Esplanade Arts & Heritage Centre
New TREX Exhibitions for 2010/2011 from the AGA

- Out on a Limb ( mixed-media examinations of the subject of trees in art created by contemporary artists and works from the collection of the Alberta Foundation for the Arts)
