Welcome to the Sculptors’ Association of Alberta
Established in 1986, the Sculptors’ Association of Alberta (SAA) has grown from six founding members to a dynamic organization which influences the artistic landscape of Alberta. Its members’ work is eclectic and varied, with media ranging from clay and metal to concrete, mosaic, stone, wood, ice and snow, papier maché, fibre and more. SAA’s vision is of a healthy, growing community of sculptors across Alberta who support and learn from each other, exhibit together, collaborate with other organizations and inspire Albertans of all ages through interaction with sculpture and the artists who create it. Membership is province-wide and open to anyone with an interest in sculpture: professional, amateur and student. The association is run by an eight-member board of directors and has over 60 member artists.
