**About the Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery (MAG)**

The MAG was established in 1973 as a legacy collection of Red Deer and Central Alberta history and art. Today, through objects and artworks that focus on the traditional culture of our lands and the evolution of the City of Red Deer and surrounds, it continues to play a major role in connecting people to the region and in preserving our history.
