About This Event
Experience the intriguing world of visual riddles at the "Rebus Plates for Our Times" exhibition, hosted at the Alberta Craft Gallery in Calgary. This captivating event delves into the art of rebuses—clever combinations of images and letters that convey words and phrases. Originally popularized in 19th-century France, these ceramic plates often feature thought-provoking themes, from moral lessons to social commentaries.
On Saturday, April 11, 2026, attendees can engage with craft historian Dr. Jennifer Salahub during the "Pictorial Puns" talk from 1 PM to 2 PM, followed by an artist reception from 2 PM to 4 PM.
