1. Star Wars Identities: The Exhibition - October 27 2012
We know there are tons of Star Wars fans out there. Even if you aren't into Star Wars
this is an event that can't be missed simply because it's an experience worth having. The culture
of Star Wars is what bands all the nerds and geeks together. Star War Identities is a museum of
all the greatest characters from the movie. If you have kids this is something that will excite
their wonder. Your friends will surely appreciate the authenticity of it all.
2. 2. The Arctic Shores Exhibit at the Edmonton Valley Zoo
The Edmonton Valley Zoo has made a lot of memories for locals in Edmonton. Seeing
animals from the cute and cuddly kind to the fierce and gigantic ones there should be
something there for everyone. With different events being showcase every month you will
never get bored. Even for the avid learner types there are talks that are given about different
types of animals you won't want to miss events like Canada Day at the Zoo. It will be there 53rd
birthday and they are excited to celebrate it with you.
3. Art Gallery of Alberta
For the artists in the family or friends this might be a great place to learn something new
and open your mind to a new perspective. The Art Gallery of Alberta is a great place to take a
look at famous art work by Brendan McGillicuddy as well as Alex Janvier. If you're looking for
something to excite your mind then look no further. The Art Gallery of Alberta has proven to a
great way to sit back, relax, drink a cup of coffee and enjoy the show.
3. 4. Muttart Conservatory
If you want to see Edmonton's beautiful side you will want to stop by Muttart
Conservatory where you'll see a range of exotic plants. The structure itself is an iconic building
that stands tall and proud in Edmonton. There is also a Yoga class held there during specific
dates and times with a cost of $80. There is also a wonderful restaurant located inside called
Culina-Muttart where they serve the freshest foods.
5. West Edmonton Mall
West Edmonton Mall is one the most famous malls in all of Canada. I thought I would
save the best for last! This mall is not only one of the largest malls in the country but it
has it's very own amusement park built inside. Not only would this mean that you
wouldn't have to deal with unpredictable weather like in your typical amusement park.
If you are feeling tired of rollercoaster rides and water parks you could always go walk
down to the theatres and enjoy a movie. This mall has something for everyone and it
lives up to its famous name.
