Something for everyone!

Alberta Arts Days is quickly approaching, which means it’s time to start thinking about how you’d like to be involved!  Last year, thousands of Albertans discovered, experienced and celebrated our vibrant arts and culture landscape.  Hundreds of community groups and organizations partnered to offer 571 events in 116 communities.

Alberta Arts Days has a starring role for absolutely everyone:  artists, art organizations, community groups, municipalities, libraries, schools and businesses.  This year, show your support for local art and culture by partnering with others in your community to host an event or becoming a sponsor.

Hosting an event doesn’t need to be a major undertaking.  It can be as simple as adding an artistic flair to something that’s already in the works, or opening your organization’s doors and offering a behind the scenes look into how art is created.  We’ve developed a number of resources to help you get started.

For those of you who prefer not to test your artistic mettle, there’s the all important role of audience member.  Make sure to mark you calendars today because September 17, 18 and 19 are shaping up to be three wildly creative days!

The success of Alberta Arts Days has helped spur the creation of National Culture Days – a pan-Canadian movement to raise the awareness, accessibility, participation and engagement of all Canadians in the cultural life of their communities
