The Art Gallery of Alberta respectfully acknowledges that we are located in Treaty 6 Territory, the traditional land of diverse Indigenous Peoples including the Plains Cree, Woodland Cree, Beaver Cree, Nitsitapi/Blackfoot, Métis, Nakota Sioux, Anishinaabe/Saulteaux/Ojibwe and Dene Peoples. We also acknowledge the many Indigenous, Inuit and Métis people who make Alberta their home today.

Read the following poem by AGA French Bilingual Educator Gwladys Jousselme and paint or draw, sculpt or film a visual representation inspired by her words:
L’automne, c’est la richesse
Les forêts se découvrent princesses
Arbres parés de robes d’or vibrant
Aux pans s’envolant
Par désir brûlant du vent
Amant légèrement insolent
Dénudant l’ardente
La flamboyante
Amante.
