Looking for a way to spend an afternoon in Calgary, we decided to spend some time at The Glenbow. I expected an art museum, my friend a natural history museum. We were both right - but her more than me. There is a small art...More

Before I visited this museum, I thought I would spend at most 2-4 hours in it. Eventually I spent a total of 10 hours there! Surely that was an overkill for most people; however, it cannot be denied at any rate that the Glenbow Museum...More

This Museum was much larger and more extensive than I expected. You can only park on the street until 3:30 and we did not get there until 2:00. An hour and a half was not nearly enough time. The gems in Mineral exhibit is fantastic....More

Really really enjoyed Kent Monkman temporary exhibit. He walks you through the injustice present in Canadian history and if you were not aware he does a good job of showing you. Also if you are First Nations, you can go to the Glenbow at no...More
