Evolution of Electricity Artist: Wei Luan, Edmonton, AB Size: 1400 sq. ft. 1999 From the first electrical generator, supplied by John Armbruster in the early 1 920s, to whatever the future may hold, electricity continues to play a vital role in all of our lives. Mr. Armbruster first provided electricity to sections of the Town of Stony Plain from 1925-1929, after which time Calgary Power took over. Many long-time residents of Stony Plain remember having to wrap up a game of whist before “lights out” at 10 p.m. and adhering to allotted laundry days according to what area of town power was being supplied to. Local pioneering women are pictured at their modem-day appliances that eased their daily lives, while John Armbruster is depicted with some of the personalities that have actively been involved in the establishment and development of related services in the area. Two youths are reaching out towards promises of an unknown future.
