This place is my secret weapon for hilarious (and saucy/slightly inappropriate) cards for all occasions. As for their namesake, their framing is impeccable and the images they have on hand are impressive and varied. I've seen a lot of different projects done out of here and the work is beautiful. Bring in your own items, or find something beautiful in house! Or stock up on cards! There's lots of options!

This is a cool little art and framing shop on Leduc's admittedly quiet "main street". They also…read morecarry a nice selection of collectibles as well as paints. I often pass by framing shops in the malls in Edmonton and never go in because I worry it's out of my price range or that im going to be subjected to high pressure sales tactics. I have never had these worries at Black Gold Gallery and Frame. The owner is a lovely woman who is friendly but content to leave you to browse if you tell her you are just looking. A little known fact about this place also is if you are a Bradford exchange fan they will place an order for you if you see something you like on the website and will do it through their own account which is great if online shopping makes you uncomfortable or you don't have a credit card. Just make sure you have at least half the money to put down on your purchase and they will call you when it arrives. They were very understanding with me the last time I made a purchase and it took me three days to get to Leduc to actually pick it up. I only received one extra reminder phone call and not once was I ever accused of trying to flake out on paying them the other half of the money. These folks have been around since 1993 and with great selection and unbeatable customer service it is easy to see why. If you are in the Leduc area and looking to add to the decor of your home make sure to give this great small business a look and I promise you will not be disappointed.

First time at the gallery/studio & I absolutely could of spent a lot of money on neat gifts and…read moremore art for my walls. I restrained myself as I'm waiting to access my new living space and don't need more art sadly sitting in the dark of storage. However, I did stock up on cards that have her artwork on them (there's a deal if you buy 5) to brighten up the day for some friends and family. The gallery is located in the professional building and the entrance is accessible but the gallery itself might be tight in some spots if one has a wheelchair or even a walker. However, if there's something of interest, I'm sure Lorraine would be happy to bring items closer to a person as she's very personable and the whole time I m was there we were chatting about her gallery and the different items other artists have there. Literally a great mix of gift options as there's prints, pottery, jewellery, sculptures, cards, cloth items and even buttons with art designs. I was originally connected with Lorraine through my cousin. Like many of us, I wanted to do something to help those in Ukraine but make sure it was going somewhere useful. So what better way help by going through someone that is already connected to the country and doing a fundraiser. Lorraine has certain art that she's selling at various sizes on canvas for indoors or on another material for withstanding outdoors. She showed me what she printed for another customer to hang outside, and I was actually sad that I don't have a massive backyard to decorate (as it was simply beautiful!). I selected the canvas sunflower art with colourful fields in the background (sorry no photo of it until it's hanging on my wall in my new place!) but there's several options that she's offering for this fundraiser. It's not limited, so reach out to her if your interested in finding out more. She's really great at responding on Facebook and she has some flexibility with her hours at the gallery if the posted hours don't work and you want to schedule a specific time to meet her. Honestly, I recommend to stop by and take a look around. I now have this gallery on my list to take my family when they want to do a mini Edmonton trip to look at art or find unique Canadian gifts to send overseas.

This grain elevator was slated for destruction, but was purchased by the local historical society…read morefor a mere dollar. That dollar proved to be a good investment, as the last wheat pool elevator to the west in Alberta has been preserved. The museum offers the chance to actually step inside the grain elevator and see how it works. The staff are extremely knowledgable, and could easily go on for hours explaining all of the ins anf outs of the mechanics, as well as the history, of the grain elevator. The Spruce Grove Farmers' Market is held here on Saturdays as well. Admission is by donation and it is only open during the summer. If you are an Alberta history buff, you will definitely want to check the museum out.

The main gallery is a great snapshot of Alberta history told through the evolution of the personal vehicle. My favourite section was getting to see how farming equipment has changed over time. I also enjoyed the more interactive exhibits where you got to sit inside the vehicles. To my surprise, the museum isn't just about cars. A second building houses the Aviation Hall of Fame which displays various airplanes and helicopters. I would highly recommend this museum to anyone interested in something a little different or to bring your car loving relative.
