Have you ever wished you could use the Royal Alberta Museum’s collections for sketching inspiration? Now’s your chance! They'll be showcasing rarely seen museum objects to create a still-life setup for you to practice your drawing skills.    

This month, let’s focus our attention on the little guys – bugs! They will have many-legged critters from Alberta and all over the world for you to sketch. You can even use one of their microscopes to really appreciate all the little details of their anatomy. 

Looking for a new mid-week activity to shake up date night, girls' night, or your solo evening routine? Come to the Royal Alberta Museum for Retro Craft Night – craft time for adults with a historical twist.
