New U of A gallery to host unseen work opening in 2027

The University of Alberta (U of A) is renovating the Telus Centre on its campus to create a new gallery space called The Kenneth and Sandra Wong Gallery, with an estimated opening in 2027. The gallery will display works from the university's 30 registered collections, which include art, scientific specimens, and historical artifacts, such as the Southern Inspection Scroll from the MacTaggart Art Collection—a 100-foot-long survey of the Grand Canal from 1770 that will be shown for the first time in Canada.
