The Southern Alberta Art Gallery (SAAG) sits beside Galt Gardens in the city center. The building was converted from an early public library and later expanded. The gallery focuses on Canadian and international contemporary art, with exhibitions that change regularly. Though modest in size, its curatorial work has a good reputation among mid-sized Canadian cities. Admission is usually free. The gallery is closed on Mondays, and opening hours are listed on the official website. It can be combined on foot with the old downtown streets, Galt Gardens and the Galt Museum.
