Edmonton Wedding Planner: Local Art Wedding Gifts

A few weeks ago I wrote about local Edmonton Made wedding gifts and got lots of wonderful feedback about purchasing local gifts for weddings. This week, I am taking a look at your options for purchasing fine art wedding gifts from SNAP (Society of Northern Alberta Printmakers), here in Edmonton.

If you haven’t heard of SNAP before, I definitely encourage you to check them out. They are a fun and unique visual art organization that has a wonderful gallery and have an array of fun and interesting classes. Want to learn letter pressing or screen-printing? They’ve got you covered!

But more importantly, they sell a huge array of fine art prints! Their collection features the work of local, national and international print artists. Their prints range in price from $50 to $500 – which is the perfect price range for wedding gifts. You can feel good about giving this gift because you are not only supporting the work of an artist; you are supporting the work of a local, Edmonton non-profit.

Title: Provisional Shelter | Artist: Aimee Brown | Size: Paper: 8x10" | Medium: Screen print (Glow-in-the-dark) | Price: $50 CAD

You’d like to give more than one print to the happy couple? SNAP also offers a SNAPline membership for $150, which includes four original fine art prints and a full colour printmaking publication right to their door.

These have to got to be some of my favourite gifts to give! A friend of mine recently moved away and a few of us got her this Jill Staton piece below. It was the perfect gift for a friend leaving Alberta!
