Notes:

For over a hundred years artists have been looking at Canmore and the Bow Valley with eyes focused on other things than the mountain scenery.  That includes Group of Seven painter A.Y. Jackson who took note of town from the porch of the Canmore Hotel.  Join Mary-Beth Laviolette for a different perspective with pictures to surprise and broaden what it is we know about this place.
